A WOMAN had a doner kebab smeared in her face at a takeaway in Scarborough, police have said.
The 26-year-old local woman was allegedly assaulted just after 3am on Saturday in Express Pizza in St Thomas Street by a male suspect who left the takeaway and got into a taxi following the incident.
North Yorkshire Police said the man was white, about 30 with short brown hair, and wearing a white short-sleeved top and dark jeans.
Special Constable Liam Cromack, of the Scarborough Safer Neighbourhood Team, said: “This apparently unprovoked attack left the woman extremely upset and distressed. We are doing everything we can to identify the man involved in the alleged assault.
“From enquiries it is known that the takeaway was very busy at the time of the incident, with a number of potential witnesses yet to come forward. I also need to track down the taxi driver who picked up the suspect on St Thomas Street.”
Anyone with information should phone North Yorkshire Police on 101, email liam.cromack@northyorkshire.pnn.police.uk or phone Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
