The Carabinieri are investigating a suspected sexual assault of a 21-year-old German student in Milan. The incident occurred in the early hours of Wednesday, October 14, as the student was returning to her accommodation following a visit to a local establishment.

According to police reports, two unidentified men approached the student from behind in the northeastern part of Milan, restrained her, and forced her into a secluded area. After the attackers fled, the victim managed to reach a nearby intersection where she encountered two Italian tourists who called emergency services.
