A man, aged 40, has been arrested following the serious assault of a woman in her home in Eastbourne. The 41-year-old woman sustained serious facial injuries in the early hours of October 22.

It happened at around 8.15pm near the junction of Seaside and Ceylon Place. The suspect has been arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm, criminal damage and theft of a motor vehicle. Officers would like to hear from the passer-by, who is described as a man with long shoulder length blond hair and was wearing jeans and a hooded top.
