Prosecutors stated the 24-year-old groped the victim, grabbed her by the hair and gripped her neck.

The crime also included him making sexual remarks before he eventually went on to rape her.
Donnelly had denied the charge during a trial at the High Court in Glasgow.
But, jurors found him guilty of the attack by a non-unanimous verdict today.
After the verdict, prosecutor Alan Parfery told how Donnelly, also of Dumbarton, was a first offender.

Donnelly had been on bail, but his lawyer did not ask for that to be continued pending sentencing next month.
Lord Arthurson went on to state to the attacker: “You have been convicted of a violent, coercive and highly degrading rape of a 20-year-old woman in a public place.”
Donnelly was also put on the sex offenders list as sentencing was deferred for reports.
A woman who had accompanied Donnelly left the courtroom in tears after he was led handcuffed to the cells.
