A woman was
pushed to the ground as she walked on a Hamilton street in the early hours of
Saturday.
She fought
off her attacker but police are still looking for him - and say he may now have
cuts on his head.
The woman
was walking south down Higgins Road between 4.30am and 5am, police said, and
the man came up behind her.
He forced
her down to the footpath near the intersection with Ramsay Street, police said.
"She
fought him off and hit him in the head," a statement from Acting Detective
Sergeant Michael Handley said.
The man ran
off, and was seen heading north on Higgins Road towards Killarney Road.
The man was
wearing all black and was described as being of medium build and height,
Handley said.
"He may
have lacerations or cuts on his head."
Anyone with
information on who the man could be, or on the assault, is asked to contact
Constable Richard Ely on 021 191 0208, or Hamilton Police on (07) 858 6200.
