Men accused of luring young girls onto jetskis before sexual assault

Three men have been arrested over the alleged sexual assault of four young women last year at a Melbourne beach.

One of the three men, aged 40, 37, and 26, is accused of approaching the girls, aged between 12 and 16, on November 27 at Altona beach.

Victoria Police said the man asked them if they wanted a ride on his jet ski.

"The victims were taken on the jet ski into deeper waters far from the shore where they were sexually assaulted before being returned to the beach," officers said.

The men were arrested on Tuesday and interviewed, but have since been released "pending further enquiries".
