Police appeal over assault on woman in city street

The incident is said to have happened on Solly Street in Sheffield on 9 May

Police are appealing for two women to come forward after another woman was left seriously injured in an alleged assault in Sheffield earlier this month.

The victim was said to have been attacked on Solly Street, near the junction with Garden Street, at about 22:00 BST on 9 May, officers said.

The woman was allegedly attacked as she approached a vehicle in the street, they added.

Two other women, who were in a white or silver Audi at the time of the incident, have been asked to get in touch with police.

They were described as being Asian or middle Eastern and in their late teens to early 20s.

One of the women was thought to be around 5ft 4ins (162cm) tall, with long dark curly hair, and of a slim build, police said.

The other was described as being of average build, dressed all in black and wearing a headscarf.

Officers said they were keen to speak to the women as they may hold information which could help in their investigation into the incident.
