    Police are appealing for help to identify a man after a car window was smashed and a handbag stolen at Nidd Gorge car park.

    North Yorkshire Police released a CCTV image of the man yesterday and said it wanted to speak to him.

    The man is described as bald and around 5ft 8ins to 5ft 10ins tall. He was captured on camera wearing a green jacket, possibly a wax/Barbour style, and black trousers.

    Nidd Gorge is a popular beauty spot often frequented by dog walkers.

    A woman's car rear window was smashed while she was walking her dog between 9am and 10.10am on November 3.

    North Yorkshire Police said in a statement it wanted the public to "help establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident". It added:

    "In particular, we are appealing for information about any suspects that might have been seen in the car park on the morning of the incident."


    Anyone with information can contact North Yorkshire Police on 101, select option 2, and ask for Daniel Fawkes or email daniel.fawkes@northyorkshire.pnn.police.uk

    If you wish to remain anonymous, you can pass information to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
