Police are hunting three men after a woman was raped at a bus stop in south-east London.

The victim, 21, was attacked as she waited for a bus in Charlton after a night out, Scotland Yard said.

Two of the men held her down as the third raped her at the junction of Bugsbys Way and Hope and Anchor Lane on Tuesday night.

Police said the men, who are all described as Asian, engaged her in conversation before assaulting her and taking her cash, credit card and purse.

The victim did not require hospital treatment after the attack, according to police.

Anyone with information about the incident, which happened between 2.30am and 4am on Tuesday morning, is asked to call police on 0208 721 4663 or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
