A man has been arrested on suspicion of raping an 11-year-old girl in a north London park.
The girl was dragged from Galliard Road into Jubilee Park, Lower Edmonton, Enfield, after getting off a bus from school at about 17:00 GMT on Friday.
Police believe the attack may have lasted two to three hours in which she sustained serious injuries.
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said the man was arrested at an address in Edmonton on Monday.
The girl, who was walking home from school when she was attacked, is recovering after undergoing surgery.
