Two men drag woman into bushes and try to rape her outside Crown Casino in Perth
A woman was dragged into bushland by two men who tried to sexually assault her in a horrific late-night attack in a busy city park.
Police allege the woman, in her 40s, was walking in Glenn Place, near Perth’s CBD, at around 9.40pm on Tuesday when she was jumped by two men.
The men allegedly dragged the woman into bushland next to Kagoshima Park Lake, where they tried to attack her before she could scream for help.
“The woman was able to scream for help, causing the two men to flee the area,” police said in a statement on Wednesday.
