Police say a man has been arrested after a teenage girl was sexually assaulted in a supermarket car park.

The attack happened at about 21:30 BST on 28 April outside Morrisons in Wellingborough.

Northamptonshire Police said a man approached the girl at the Swansgate Centre and walked with her to the supermarket.

Detectives have been questioning a 44-year-old man, who has been released on conditional bail.

Northamptonshire Police said the girl was sitting outside the shopping centre on Midland Road when she was approached by a man.

They walked along Midland Road, then down Commercial Way and along the paths outside the council offices to Morrisons in Oxford Street.

Police said she was then subjected to a sexual assault before she was able to leave.
