Police are investigating an alleged sex attack in Workington.

Specially-trained officers are investigating whether the 15-year-old girl was the victim of an assault while she was out between 2am and 6am on Saturday.

The investigation is understood to still be at a very early stage.

The youth has been charged with sexually assaulting a woman.

He is to appear before Carlisle youth court on October 15.
