Bracknell

Police are investigating an incident that occurred in the early hours of Sunday morning (19/2) near the 3M roundabout in Binfield Road, Bracknell.

A young woman reported that, sometime between 4am and 5.30am, she was walking through an underpass when she was sexually assaulted by a man.

Det Insp Paul Cook said: “The underpass was temporarily closed on Sunday morning while investigators examined the scene.

“No arrests have been made and our investigations are still ongoing to establish exactly what happened. At this stage, we are not linking this incident to the sexual assault which occurred near the Bracknell Sports and Leisure Centre on Tuesday night (14/2).”

Ch Insp Rob Povey, commander of Bracknell Forest local police area, said: “I would like to reassure the community that incidents such as this are rare.

“I would ask anyone who was in the area at the time, or who has any information about this incident to come forward and assist with our inquiries.”

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 0845 8 505 505. If you don’t want to speak to police or give your name, please call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
