Local DUP councillor Niree McMorris said: "Devastated to learn that a local woman was attacked in Irish Street Estate last night around 8pm in the Ness Gardens area.
"If anyone was in the area and saw anything suspicious please report it to the PSNI. Please also check any door bell cameras as any information could be important.
