Detectives are investigating a serious sex assault on a woman in Dereham.
The woman - in her mid 20s - called police at about 4.40am on Saturday to report the attack.
Details about what happened are still sketchy but officers sealed off the alleyway at Barwells Court - just off the town's Market Place - and also an area in Swanton Road near the railway crossing as part of their inquiries and forensic examinations were carried out.
The suspect is a man in his late 20s and police are appealing for anyone who may have seen anything suspicious between about 3am and 5am on Saturday.
Anyone with information should contact Det Insp Debbie Gunnill at Norfolk Police on 0845 4564567.
