Police probe attempted abduction of woman in Lancaster

Police are investigating the attempted abduction of a 20-year-old woman in Lancashire.

The woman had left the Elements nightclub on North Street, Lancaster, at 0330 BST on Monday when a white car pulled up alongside her.

A male passenger got out and dragged her from behind, pulling her into the car. The woman struggled and fled when the car reached Dalton Square.

Police have appealed to any witnesses to contact them.

There were three men in the car, all described as being white and in their early to mid twenties.

One had short dark hair and was wearing a dark top. The second had short dark brown hair and was wearing a bright blue top.

The third had a slightly larger build with short brown hair and was wearing navy track suit bottoms.
