Plea for help in manhunt after attacks on women

Gardaí are hunting a man who violently attacked two women, sexually assaulting one, as they walked home.

Detectives issued descriptions and photographs of men who they believe have vital information in relation to the assaults, either as witnesses or suspects.

In both cases, the victims, described as young women, were walking home alone in Dublin after a night out when they were jumped on and viciously assaulted.
