A TEENAGER has been arrested and bailed by police investigating a rape allegation.
A 46-year-old woman called the police on Sunday, June 15, to say she had been raped after meeting a man in Bolton town centre.
She said she met a man while she had been drinking at The Swan pub in Churchgate, Bolton.
The alleged victim was seen outside the pub with a man at about 1.30am, when the pair were up against a wall near the gates of the pub and catching attention of passers-by.
The woman got into the taxi with the man and is said to have been raped between 1.30am and 6.30am.
A 19-year-old has now been arrested on suspicion of rape and bailed until July 28 while police investigate.
