Woman attacked while sunbathing at city park - news.com.au

Police are hunting a man they believe attacked a young woman as she relaxed in a park near the Perth CBD.

The attack took place about 4.15pm on January 17 as the woman was sunbathing in Robertson Park, in the suburb of Perth, according to authorities.

A man approached the woman and tried to strike up a conversation before police say he tried to sexually assault her.

The woman managed to escape and sought help from a nearby member of the public, whose intervention caused the attacker to flee.

Police are urging the woman to come forward, as she’s yet to speak to them about the incident, as they hunt her would-be attacker.

Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or make a report online.

Robertson Park is located along Fitzgerald Street, next to the Robertson Park Tennis Club.

The City of Vincent said the park is dog friendly, with “a playground, barbecue, park benches and plenty of shade.
