- Holidaymaker was taken to hospital for medical tests after locals raised alarm
Police are hunting two men and a woman after a British tourist was robbed and sexually assaulted as she left a Madrid club.
The trio offered to help the 39-year-old after seeing her ‘disorientated and under the effects of alcohol’ near the disco in a central Madrid square in the early hours of Thursday morning.
But the pretend Good Samaritans, described locally as a Spanish woman and two men of African origin, instead led her to a bench where they stole all her belongings including cash, jewellery and her mobile phone.
One of the male thieves then fled the scene along with his female accomplice.
But the second man is said to have stayed with his victim briefly and sexually assaulted her on the street bench before also running off when he realised he had been spotted by an onlooker.
