A man has been charged with sexual assault and  breaching his Sexual Offences Prevention Order in Crawley.

It follows an incident in the ASDA store where a man was seen acting suspiciously around a 4 year-old girl who was sitting in a shopping trolley.

The girl’s mother had her back turned to pick an item up off a shelf when the alleged assault happened.

The suspect, a man in his 70s, has been remanded in custody.
