A cyclist with rotten teeth attacked a woman after she gave him directions outside her home.

The assault happened in Lynton Road, Benfleet, yesterday afternoon, as the victim approached her home. The middle-aged cyclist stopped her and asked how to get to Hadleigh.

The attacker was in his 40s, with brown shoulder length hair and stubble. His teeth were said to be rotten, with many gaps.
