A sixty two year old Bolton man has been jailed for four years and two months after being found guilty of 4 counts of sexual assault.

Alan Worthington of Fern Street was sentenced after a GMP investigation into 4 sexual assaults against women in Bolton between April and May 2022.

A taxi driver was commended in court for his charitable approach after he helped one of the victims by working extra shifts and extra days to facilitate the journeys she wanted to make as she was too scared to walk alone.

Detective Constable Andrew Jameson of GMPs Bolton CID, said: “This was a horrific ordeal for the victims to have suffered.

“As a team, we are very pleased with the sentence that Worthington has received which has been a result of a large scale and thorough investigation by GMP.

“I’d like to thank the victims for their extraordinary bravery in coming forward and to the staff who have supported them. I’d also like to appeal to anyone who has suffered from abuse to please get in touch so we can help you.”
