Sinn Féin Councillors Colly Kelly and Kevin Campbell have visited the home of the woman who was the victim of an attack in a laneway between Creggan Heights and Ballymagowan just before 9pm.
Councillor Kelly said “I called today to the home of the woman attacked last night along with fellow councillor Kevin Campbell. We just wanted to show our support and ensure that she was getting whatever other support that she may need.
“Like everyone in the local community we were shocked and disgusted at news of the attack.
“That shock and disgust turned to anger when we seen the state that this woman was left in. Whoever was behind this attack they need caught.
“If anyone has any information I would appeal for them to bring it forward,” he said.
The 50 year old woman, who was attacked from behind, was walking up a laneway a the time.
She was jumped from behind and suffered several cuts to her face.
