A young family were subjected to racial abuse as they walked in Swindon, police say.
The Wiltshire force is appealing for witnesses following the incident which happened yesterday - 15 November - at about 2,30pm.
The parents and their children were walking along Queens Drive when a man on a bicycle rode past and verbally abused them before riding off.
He is described as white and of lean build, and wore a woolly hat, jeans and jacket.
The family were left shaken and very upset by the incident.
PC Connor Crespin said: "We'd like to speak to anyone who was in the area yesterday and may have heard or seen this incident or the male on the bicycle.
"We'd especially like to speak to two people who were nearby at the time and who we believe witnessed the whole event. If that is you, please come forward."
Anybody with information is asked to contact the police on 101, quoting crime reference number 54200113954. Alternatively, they can report anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
