Police in Brighton are appealing for witnesses after a woman was sexually assaulted on the beach last month.
The victim reported being attacked just before 12.30am on February the 12th near Shelter Hall.
Three men from Hove, two aged 19, and another aged 26, were arrested shortly after on suspicion of sexual assault and remain on conditional bail.
Investigator Rose Horan said: “We would like to speak to anybody who can help us investigate this disturbing incident.
“Several members of the public, including a man in a brown coat walking his dog, were seen walking past the scene and we are particularly keen to get in touch with them.
“This was a distressing assault on a vulnerable young woman, who is being supported by specialist officers, and while we have arrested three suspects, work is ongoing to establish the full circumstances.
“If you can help, please contact police online or by calling 101, quoting serial 045 of 12/02.”
