Police are searching for a man who subjected a young woman to a frightening experience in her own bedroom in Bexhill.

At about 4.30am, on Tuesday (July 20) the woman, in her twenties, awoke to see him leaning in through her open ground floor bedroom window in London Road, Bexhill, police said.

He then made an indecent remark, according to police, whereupon she managed to close the window and he made off from the scene.
