Police have released a second FACE image following a report on an attempted abduction in Wodonga on Monday.
The image was compiled after investigators spoke to a witness who saw a man loitering in the area around the time.
Yesterday afternoon a FACE image was released that was compiled after police spoke with the victim.
That FACE image shows a man wearing sunglasses.
Detectives have been told the victim went to the aid of a man who appeared to have stumbled on Lawrence Street, opposite Kelly Park, about 3.40pm on 31 March.
The man asked the teenager for help to his car and when she obliged was forced into the vehicle and physically assaulted.
The 15-year-old victim was able to escape the car and run home to raise the alarm.
It is believed the offender pulled out into Lawrence Street and then pulled straight back into a parking spot and sat in his car for several minutes before driving away, north, on Melrose Drive.
The teen was conveyed to Wodonga Hospital for treatment to her injuries and is in a stable condition.
The offender is described as aged in his 50-60s, balding with grey hair on the sides and with a large belly.
He is believed to have been driving a late model black sedan with tinted windows.
Anyone with information or anyone who may have witnessed the incident, which may have looked like a domestic argument on the side of the road, is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or log onto www.crimestoppers.com.au
