A PROSTITUTE was raped in Swindon last night.

The woman got into a dark-coloured Mitsubishi car with an unknown man in Fleming Way near the old B&Q store at 10.30pm.

He drove her to the Groundwell Industrial Estate where he became aggressive. The woman tried to get out of the car but he stopped her and raped her.

Afterwards, she managed to escape and call the police.

The man was white, in his 40s and about 6ft tall. He was flabby with a bald, shaven head and bushy eyebrows. He wore a striped jumper.

Acting Det Sgt Corin Dennison said: "These attacks are always terrifying and this one has left the victim extremely shaken.

"If anyone recognises the man from this description or saw the T-reg Mitsubishi car in the area last night I would urge them to get in contact with me as soon as they can."

Call Acting Det Sgt Dennison on 0845 408 7000 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
