The attack was reported to West Yorkshire Police at 5:45pm over the weekend. A scene is now in place n Market Street, Wibsey, a statement said.
An official statement from West Yorkshire Police said: “Police are investigating following a report of a rape which was received at 5.45pm yesterday.
“A scene is in place in Market Street, Wibsey while enquiries continue and an 18-year-old woman is being supported by specially trained officers.”
The cordoned area is a alleyway between Market Street and Hardy Street, near the centre of Wibsey. The alleyway runs between two houses.
Police officers have been guarding the scene since last night, both on foot and in a car and a van.
One local resident, who has lived in the area for four years, told a Yorkshire Live reporter, “nothing like this has ever happened, there’s never been a police cordon on the street, never any trouble.”
