Teenage girl raped on Isle of Arran as police appeal for witnesses

A teenage girl has been raped on the Isle of Arran as police appeal for information.

The serious sexual assault occurred around 3am on Saturday, September 4 in the area referred to as 'Fisherman's Walk.'

The 19-year-old had been walking between Cladach Beach and the Co-op, known locally as 'the wee Co.'

She had become separated from a group of friends and had been wearing dark coloured clothing, according to Police Scotland.

Detectives are now appealing for any witnesses who may have seen her or any suspicious behaviour at the time to get in touch.

Detective Inspector Stephen McCulloch, based in Saltcoats, said: "I would ask anyone who saw a 19-year-old woman in the Fisherman's Walk area, possibly walking with another person, to contact us.

"We're trying to establish the full circumstances so any information related to this might prove to be crucial."

Anyone with any information is asked to contact the police on 101, quoting incident number 1713 of Sunday September 5.
