Detectives have spoken to a seriously injured Polish woman who was apparently assaulted while on a walk in Petrie.
A Queensland Police spokesperson said that officers interviewed the victim using an interpreter on Saturday.
However, she wanted to keep the details private as she had not told her family yet.
Police said the 24-year-old woman, working in Australia as an au pair and living in Petrie, had gone for "her usual walk" around her area on Friday when the attack happened, about 8.30pm.
She sought help from residents in Boona Street about 9pm and was taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital with serious but non-life threatening facial injuries.
Detective Inspector Russell Halfpenny said a crime scene was established at the corner of Old Dayboro and Beeville roads.
Police said no weapon had been found at the scene and the family with whom the woman was living were at the hospital.
They were not under investigation.
Police are seeking help from anyone who was in the area on Friday night.
