Rape alleged
A man will appear in the District Court today charged with rape after a woman, aged 28, was allegedly threatened with a carving knife and raped in the bathroom of her Dallington home early on Saturday. A police spokesman said that the man, wearing a stocking over his head and wielding a knife, gained entry to the house through an unlocked door just after 6 a.m. He left after allegedly raping the woman and was apprehended in Gloucester Street soon after.
