Police are today hunting a Ken Barlow-lookalike who committed a sex act in front of an 11-year-old girl.
The man, in his early 40s, who looks similar to the Coronation Street character, appeared from an alleyway as the girl stood in the Hampden Park area of Eastbourne.
After committing the sex act, the man fled and the youngster ran to a nearby house to raise the alarm.
Police appealing for witnesses said the man, who struck at 3.45pm last Friday, wore dark jeans and a flat cap and had a brown moustache.
