“We would urge anyone who may have witnessed the incident that we believe took place in the park and children’s play area near to Millennium Square, just off the Ketley Park Road to speak with us or contact Crimestoppers to help us with our investigation.

"We’d also like to hear from anyone who has dash-cam fitted to their car and was driving in the area of the park (Ketley Park Road) and Holyhead Road. It is possible they may have captured footage which may help with our enquiries.
