Teenager raped as she walked home along cycle path after night out

A teenager has been raped as she walked home along a cycle path after a night out.
The 18-year-old woman was attacked by a man on the cycle path off Haslett Avenue East in Three Bridges, Crawley, West Sussex, on Saturday night.
A Sussex Police spokesman said: "The man raped her and then left.
"The victim was found staggering along Haslett Avenue East by a member of the public shortly before 11.30pm on Saturday.
"She was treated by paramedics before being taken to a specialist unit that supports the victims of rape and sexual assaults."
Detective Inspector Rob Walker said: "We believe the rape happened at around 11pm but we are still trying to pinpoint exactly when because the victim is understandably very shaken by her ordeal.
"She is shocked and upset but thankfully does not have serious physical injuries and we are giving her support."
