The Metropolitan Police are continuing their investigation into a 'serious sexual assault' in Collier Row.
The investigation was launched after officers were called to an address in Hillrise Road on September 3 to conduct arrest enquiries.
At the address, a 60-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of making threats to kill, rape, possession of a firearm, and criminal damage.

He was taken into custody but the latest update from a Met Police spokesperson has confirmed he has since been released on bail.
The arrest followed allegations of what police are describing as a "serious sexual assault" inside the address involving people known to each other.
There is no wider risk to the public and the investigation remains live.
