Police are investigating after a teenager was assaulted while out jogging.

The 13-year-old girl was attacked in the grounds of Egremont Castle at about 8.15am on Tuesday.

A spokesman for Cumbria Police say the victim was jogging - with headphones on - when a teenage boy "swung at her" as she passed him.

Officers investigating the incident say she fell to the ground but was unhurt.

Her attacker is believed to have been on his own, and also in his early teens, but there is no description.

Witnesses are urged to call police on 101.
