Police were called after a sex worker was attacked in Broadgreen area of central Swindon tonight.

Officers raced to the incident at around 10pm, following a report that a woman was distressed in the street and a number of men hunting for the offender on her behalf.

Four units were in Manchester Road as they spoke to the victim and assessed her injuries, but she did not require medical treatment and returned home following the ordeal.

At the time of the incident, at least four sex workers could be seen standing on street corners in the area despite the coronavirus lockdown regulations.

We’ve approached Wiltshire Police for comment.
