Police said the reported incident happened on the 221 bus heading from Church Street, close to Conisbrough Castle, towards Balby

Police investigating a sex attack on a bus in Doncaster in the summer have made a fresh appeal for information.

A woman was reportedly assaulted by a man who sat next to her on the 221 service heading from Church Street in Conisbrough town centre towards Balby at around 11:15 BST on 9 July, South Yorkshire Police said.

A 62-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of sexual assault and has since been released on bail.

Det Con Mike Tilley said: "We know there were other members of the public on the bus at the same time who may have witnessed this. We are asking you to please come forward as our investigation continues."
