Police have released an e-fit of a man they're looking to speak to – and it's caused quite the stir on social media.
Thames Valley Police are hoping to speak to the man in connection with the alleged sexual assault of a dog walker in Maidenhead. The incident occurred in an open meadow close to Woolley Firs and Cherry Garden at around 5.45pm on August 14.
Despite the police's best efforts to solve the crime, people on X (formerly Twitter) have mocked the e-fit as the bloke's eyes appear extraordinarily large. One comment read: "Are you all looking for an alien from another planet?"

Another person said: "It’s biologically impossible that a human could have such large eyes." A third said: "Can you not just sketch it like you used to? I have never seen a human being that remotely looks like this."
"Good luck catching this one… he’ll see the police coming from a mile away," a fifth said. Other comments compared the e-fit to the Crazy Frog. Another added: "Should be pretty easy to catch this bloke, he ain't blending in anywhere."
Investigating officer Detective Constable Peter Fitzer said: "I am releasing this e-fit image in the hope that someone recognises the man depicted. If you recognise the man pictured or have any information that could help with our investigation, make a report online or call 101, quoting reference number 43230363229. Alternatively, for 100% anonymity, you can also call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
The incident occurred after the dog walker spotted the alleged offender crouched in some undergrowth close to the path she was on. After walking a little further, she turned to see someone walking towards her.
Police said the victim then shouted before the alleged offender grabbed her jumper and tried lifting it up. The alleged offender then made off in the opposite direction.
