Police have released new images of a fourth man suspected of being involved in a serious assault on three teenage girls in a Sydney park last weekend.

At 9.40pm on Saturday, the girls, aged 15 and 16, were repeatedly assaulted in Pirrama Park in Pyrmont by a group of men after an verbal argument broke out.

Three men have already been charged over the brawl.
