Man charged with sexual assault

POLICE arrested a 27-year-old man from Ngunnawal after he allegedly sexually assaulted his ex-girlfriend at her house in Bonner yesterday.

Police allege that at 11am the woman was in her backyard when she was physically and sexually assaulted by the man. She lost consciousness and, when she woke, called the police. She was taken to The Canberra Hospital by ambulance and examined by a doctor.

Police spoke to the alleged offender and collected forensic evidence before he was charged.
