Police say they are perplexed at a random attack on a young woman who was left bleeding from the head after being assaulted by three men.
The 21-year-old victim was walking her dog along Church Street in Keysborough around 6pm on 17 September when she realised she was being followed by three men wearing black hoodies.
They struck her several times in the head before she fell to the ground, where she was then kicked in the ribs.
Her attackers ran from the scene, leaving the victim on the ground bleeding.
Detective Sergeant Craig West said he doesn’t know what motivated the attack.
“Nothing was taken and no demands were made,” he said.
The woman was treated at Dandenong Hospital and received stiches to her head.
Her attackers remain on the run and are described as tall, wearing dark clothing and of African appearance.
Police are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with information to come forward.
