The incident occurred at around 4pm on Monday 11 April.

Prior to the assault, the 46 year-old-victim had been involved in a road traffic collision and was talking to the driver of the other vehicle involved.

Whilst out of her vehicle, the victim was assaulted by a passer-by.

The offender is described as a white woman approximately 5ft 6ins tall with 'mousy' blonde curly hair. At the time of the incident she was wearing a grey hooded top and grey jogging bottoms. She was also carrying a JD Sports bag.

Following the incident, the offender then met up with pupils from the nearby Madeley Academy school and walked off from the area.

The victim was treated at the scene by paramedics and did not require hospital treatment.

Investigating officer PC Ian Cole said: "This incident occurred at a busy time of day as pupils were leaving the nearby school, if you saw anything please come forward. This was a seemingly random attack and we are investigating this matter thoroughly."
