A MAN was attacked by a woman during a racist assault in a North Yorkshire town - and police have launched an investigation into the incident.

The incident happened to the rear of Domino’s pizza shop in Church View in Sherburn-in-Elmet between 3pm and 3.30pm on Friday April 15.

A woman racially abused the man - and shortly after he used a nearby cash machine. The woman then assaulted him before throwing a bottle at a car he got into, which damaged the vehicle.

Any witnesses who have not yet spoken to the police should call 101, select option 2 and ask for Pauline Law. You can also email PC Law at Pauline.law@northyorkshire.police.uk
