12-year-old girl assaulted

By: Newstalk ZB staff | Lower South Island News | Friday July 13 2012 8:43

 

A South Dunedin property remains cordoned off following an alleged sexual assault on a 12-year-old girl last night.

The victim was walking to meet her mother a short distance away when she was dragged into a carport and assaulted by a male.

He's described as being in his late teens, with a wispy beard and wearing dark clothing.

Detective Robert Neville says it's unclear how the victim escaped.

A nearby resident says she heard screaming but assumed it was a domestic incident.

A scene examination is still in progress.

The incident happened between 7 and 8pm last night on the corner of Kirkcaldy street and Bayview Road.

Police want to hear from anyone who may be able to assist with the investigation.
