A woman was indecently assaulted as she pushed her bike near a railway station, police said today.

It happened just after 9pm yesterday in an underpass in North Street, Horsham.

The woman told officers she was approached a gang of four men, one of whom indecently assaulted her.

The gang, who had been drinking heavily, then fled towards the town's railway station, leaving the woman in the street.

A Sussex Police spokesman said: "She was not injured but she was obviously distressed by the incident."

The alleged attacker is said to be about 25, of medium build and short with light brown hair. He wore a black jacket.
