Description
A 30-year-old man has been found guilty of sexually assaulting a woman at an address in Moreton-in-Marsh.
Kane Landell was in a white delivery van when he saw a woman pull up in her car outside an address.
The court was told how he approached her and said he had a parcel for delivery at her address, and then asked her if she lived alone.
Landell then followed her into the house uninvited, asked to use the bathroom and left the parcel on the table.
When the woman looked at the parcel, she could see it had no name or address on it.
Landell, of Chadwick Avenue, Birmingham then exited the bathroom and was seen to have an erection, and the woman told him he needed to leave the address.
He then approached her and pressed his erect penis against her hip, and she again told him to get out of the address.
The woman began to film Landell, who got back into his van and he then hurriedly attempted to reverse up a narrow lane and collided with bushes and a wall.
The victim was able to get the registration of the van when the incident happened on 17 June 2024.
She contacted police and Landell was subsequently identified and arrested on suspicion of sexual assault.
Following an investigation by Gloucestershire Constabulary's Rape and Serious Sexual Offences team, the Crown Prosecution Service authorised a charge of sexual assault.
Landell denied the offence and on 23 September a jury at Gloucester Crown Court found him guilty.
He was remanded in custody and is due to be sentenced on 12 November.
Investigating officer, Detective Constable Dan Sackett said:
"I would like to thank the victim for her resilience and for persevering with the criminal justice process which has resulted in Landell being found guilty of the offence.
"Due to her help and quick-thinking to film him, he was identified and rightly put before the court."
