A 33-year-old nurse was assaulted in Nhulunbuy yesterday. The woman was sunbaking by the pool at the nurses’ quarters at Gove District Hospital when a man approached her at 2.20pm. NT Police Duty Superintendent Brendan Muldoon said the man climbed the fence and removed his shorts. “He removed his pants and approached the victim, she screamed and the offender pushed her over and he ran off,” he said.
