The alleged sexual assault of a woman as she took as shower at a WA caravan park has sent shockwaves through the grey nomad community.
The 61-year-old woman was attacked in the park’s ablution block in Meekatharra late on Thursday night. Police say a man forced his way into the shower stall of the caravan park on Main Street at 11.45pm and sexually assaulted the woman.
A 32-year-old man from Laverton has since been charged with three counts of aggravated sexual penetration without consent.
He has been remanded in custody to appear in Meekatharra Magistrates Court on July 13.
Police are still appealing for any witnesses to the incident.
Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
