The incident took place at around 9pm on Monday, 18 October, 2021 at Staneyhill Hall.

The woman was assaulted by a man and suffered minor injuries.

“A number of witnesses have told us that a car drove past whilst the incident was ongoing, however we have been unable to trace the driver of that car, unfortunately we don’t have a make or model. I would appeal to the driver to come forward as you may have witnessed the incident or captured it on dash-cam.
