Police in Bromley are investigating an allegation of indecent assault on a schoolgirl believed to be a pupil at Darrick Wood in Orpington which was reported last week.

The reported attack happened at around 9:15am on October 6 in the Crofton Avenue, Grange Road, Foxfield Road and Darrick Wood Road area.

Darrick Wood senior school circulated an email to parents on the afternoon of the same day informing them that an assault had taken place in a nearby alleyway.

The message from headteacher Dr Airey read: "I do not wish to alarm you but considered it important to bring this matter to your attention."

There have been no arrests.

Enquiries continue.

Bromley police declined to give a description of the alleged attacker.
