Bus sex assault accused in court

A man's appeared in court accused of sexually assaulting a young woman and following her to work.

The man, who can't be named under laws protecting the identity of alleged sex offenders, appeared before magistrates at Douglas Courthouse.

He hasn't yet entered pleas to sexual assault and offering to supply cocaine.

He's said to have assaulted the woman just after 6.30pm on May 14 after sitting next to her on a bus in Port Erin.

The case was adjourned until May 23 and the man was remanded in custody.
