Detectives investigating an assault on a woman in Swindon are appealing for a Good Samaritan to come forward.
At approximately 4.20am on May 29th, a woman in her 50s was walking along an alleyway behind Manchester Road that runs from Aylesbury Street to Corporation Street, when she was approached by a man who pushed her to the floor.
