A 15-year-old boy was sexually assaulted by two young women near a country lane on Sunday.

It is said the teenager fell unconscious and woke unclothed with injuries to his head and body, following the attack in a wooded area in Burgess Hill, West Sussex.

He was walking through the woodland when he was targeted by two women aged between 18 and 20, police say.

Now Sussex Police are looking for witnesses to the sex attack, which some reports say left the child unconscious on Sunday at around 6.15pm.

No one has been arrested in connection with the incident at the time of writing.
