A West Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “The suspect is described as a white middle-aged male, bald and around 5ft 10ins tall. He was wearing blue jeans and a dark or navy top.
“The male is then reported to have got out of the vehicle and hit the victim to the hand with a plank of wood. The vehicle the man was driving is described as a five-door car that was navy-coloured, possibly a Skoda.”
The women were opposite Summerbridge Drive at the time of the assault. Any motorists with dashcam who were in the vicinity of Harrogate Road around that time, who may have witnessed any part of this incident or the vehicle that the man was driving, are asked to check whether they have captured any relevant footage.
