POLICE are renewing their appeal for witnesses to a serious sexual assault which happened in Swindon in August.

The attack took place in an alleyway off Victoria Road, Old Town, Swindon, at around 2.30am on Saturday, August 17.

A woman got into a car with an unknown man who had parked nearby. She was then subjected to a serious sexual assault.

The woman then left the car and walked up to Wood Street where a member of the public contacted Wiltshire Police.

The man is described as being mixed race and the car is described as being a dark coloured saloon.

Officers are keen to talk to two women and a man who were with the woman earlier in the evening who may have information on the incident.

Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 where information can be left anonymously.
