A man was arrested yesterday evening by detectives investigating an assault on a pregnant woman in Stamford Hill, in the UK.
The man, aged in his late 50s, was arrested at a residential address in Haringey and is now in custody at an east London police station.
Police were called shortly after 9:00PM last Thursday regarding an assault that had occurred approximately 30 minutes earlier on Manor Road in Stamford Hill.
The victim, a 20-year-old pregnant Jewish woman, informed officers that she had been approached from behind by the suspect, who put a pillow case over her head before assaulting her.
The woman was taken to hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
Enquiries are ongoing to establish a motive.
At this early stage, it is not believed to be linked with any other offenses.
Police have been conducting patrols in the Stamford Hill area to provide reassurance to the local community.
