A teenager has appeared at Worthing Youth Court charged with raping a 21-year-old woman.
The 17-year-old, from Worthing, is accused of attacking the woman on August 31 last year.
The youngster, who cannot be named because of his age, was released on unconditional bail.
The case was adjourned until March 11, when it is expected to be committed to Chichester Crown Court.
