Police are seeking witnesses after a serious assault in Narrabundah in the early hours of Friday morning.
An 18-year-old woman ordered an Uber after leaving the One22 bar in the city about 3am on March 26. A silver vehicle approached soon after, which the woman got into.

It drove away and soon after the woman was seriously assaulted by the male passenger.
Police are investigating the incident and have called on anyone with information about the vehicle or its driver, or witnesses to the incident, to come forward.
