A British woman captured the moment she started chasing a man on a bike after he “groped” her.
Jenna Dollard was out at sunrise for an early morning run when her music suddenly stopped.
In an attempt to fix it the 33-year-old slowed down and started walking when a man came up behind her.

The Brit from Kendal, Cumbria, claims he proceeded to grab her and then “groped” her.
“I felt so scared, I was in shock,” Jenna told Need To Know.
“It was the last place I would ever expect something like that to happen.
“Instinctively as he tried to bike away I grabbed his bag and tried to pull him from the bike whilst taking a video.
“In my head I thought I needed evidence so it’ll be taken seriously before he does this again.”
In a moment of pure bravery Jenna quickly started recording the man whilst chasing him down the road.
The panicked attacker fled the scene whilst Jenna, who owns a reformers pilate studio, made her way straight to the police station.
According to Jenna, officers at Bondi Beach station took her statement on 29 Oct, the day of the attack.
A day later she was informed that a man matching the description had been arrested.
The arrest was made based on her video she posted online after a tip was made to the police by a viewer.
Jenna said: “The instagram post was very raw and I thought maybe a few people would share it.
“I didn’t realise how many would and how much support and messages I would get.
“It felt empowering to take control and make steps, in what way I could, to help find this guy so he couldn’t do it to someone else.
“By the way he acted I don’t think that was the first time he’s done something like this, but I wanted to make sure it would be the last.
“So I made as much noise as I could and managed to get a good video of him.
“As women, we should feel safe to go out on a run but unfortunately that isn’t the case.
“The police acted so quickly, the community rallied round and these guys can’t get away with doing this anymore.”
A spokesperson for the New South Wales Police Force said: “A man has been charged following an investigation into an alleged sexual touching incident in Sydney’s Eastern Suburbs earlier this week.
“About 5.30am on Thursday 29 October 2026, police responded to reports of an alleged sexual touching incident on Bondi Road, Bondi.
