Man accused of assaulting woman, 57
A MAN has been charged with assault after a woman was allegedly assaulted in busy Parliament Square, Ramsey, yesterday afternoon.
Police said the alleged incident happened at about 1.30pm. A 57-year-old local woman suffered facial injuries.
A number of passers-by stopped and gave her first aid.
She was subsequently treated by paramedics and then taken to Noble’s Hospital, where she was admitted overnight for further treatment. Her injuries are not considered to be life-threatening.
Sergeant Andy Kneen said: ‘We would like to hear from anyone who was in Parliament Square at this time, or immediately before, who can provide any information about what has occurred.
‘This was a busy lunchtime with very many people in the area. Although we have already spoken to a number of witnesses I would ask that anyone that hasn’t be spoken to already, comes forward.
‘Part of the pavement outside the Town hall was cordoned off for a time to facilitate forensic examination of the scene of this incident.’
The charged man will appear in court on Tuesday.
