There, one of the men touched her chest inappropriately and then put his hands under her top and groped her.
One of the other men then tried to kiss her neck.
The woman managed to push them away and ran off.
DS Ian Lawrence from Lancaster CID said: “The victim must have been absolutely petrified after these men, pretending to be doing a good deed, have led her away and abused her.
“Thankfully she was able to run off before things potentially escalated.
