Pair rescue woman from attacker

TWO good Samaritans pulled a man from a car during an alleged assault in Dandenong on Friday.
A woman had just parked her car in David Street, opposite Dandenong Hospital, about noon on 13 December when a Doveton man, 36, approached.
Detectives allege he assaulted her and appeared to be trying to get into her black Volvo wagon.
They want to speak with the men who pulled the attacker from the vehicle and held him, with help from hospital security, until police arrived and arrested him. He’s now receiving hospital treatment.
The first man is described as Caucasian in appearance and about 180 centimetres tall with brown hair and a medium build. He was wearing a blue shirt and sunglasses.
The second man is described as about 175cm tall with a solid build and light brown hair. He was wearing a chequered shirt.
Police urged anyone who witnessed the alleged assault or who can identify the men who assisted to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or visit www.crimestoppers.com.au.
