Gardaí have renewed their appeal for information about a serious sex assault on a girl (17) in a north Dublin park last weekend.
The girl was attacked by a man as she walked through the playground in Swords at around 2.40am on Sunday. In addition to being sexually assaulted, she received serious head and facial injuries.
A Garda spokesman said the attacker was aged around 18 or 19, had dark hair and was wearing a black baseball cap and a zipped black sweatshirt top.
Inspector Pat Conlon of Swords Garda station said today he believes "there may have been a number of people" in the area, which is known locally as the Jacko Recreational park, at the time of the attack.
Anyone who was in the area at the time and saw anything suspicious or may have information is asked to contact the gardaí at Swords on 01-6664700 or the Garda Confidential Number on 1-800-666-111.
