A WOMAN is recovering with family today after being indecently assaulted as she walked home from a night out.
The 31-year-old was grabbed from behind by an eastern European man who dragged her into a Southend car park and molested her.
The terrified woman, from Southend, managed to struggle free from her attacker before any serious assault took place but she remains very shaken.
The attack took place in the early hours on Saturday morning, possibly between 1-2am, as the victim walked along Royal Mews, in central Southend.
Anyone with information on the incident should contact DC Phil Brochen, of Leigh CID, on 01702 471212.
