There is a public information appeal out after a woman was sexually assaulted in Leatherhead earlier this month (Thursday, January 14).

The attack took place at Knoll Roundabout in Leatherhead, on the A24 Leatherhead bypass road around 7.05pm on the night in question.

Surrey Police, who are now investigating what happened, said they were appealing for witnesses to come forward after the "assault by touching on a woman" took place.
