Woman allegedly sexually assaulted after getting into wrong car

A man will appear in a Sydney court today charged over the alleged sexual assault of a young woman who entered his car by mistake.

Police yesterday arrested a 53-year-old man at a unit complex in Castlereagh Street, Liverpool, yesterday following inquiries into the alleged sexual assault of a woman, 18, last Saturday.

It will be alleged that about 2pm, the woman mistakenly entered the vehicle of the man who was not known to her near Liverpool railway station.

He then drove her to bushland at Lansdowne in Sydney's west and allegedly sexually assaulted her.

The suspect has been charged with one count of inciting another to sexually touch them without consent, four counts of sexual intercourse without consent, two counts of sexually touching another person without consent and one count of aggravated sexual assault.

The man is due to appear at Liverpool Court later today.
