Tina O’Brien has been seen for the first time since she was caught up in teenage girl street brawl.
The Coronation Street, 40, was caught in the fight last Friday, as a video showed her having her hair pulled and being punched as she wrestled with two youths.
Tina, who plays Sarah Barlow on the popular soap, was allegedly trying to defend her £1million home in Bramhall, Stockport from an unprovoked attack.
And Tina looked downcast while out and about in her Jaguar I-pace electric car near her home in Greater Manchester.
It comes after The Sun has reported that she will be improving security at her property, which she shares with her husband and her two children, over backlash fears.

The Coronation Street , 40, was caught in the fight last Friday, as a video showed her having her hair pulled and being punched as she wrestled with two youths
It is believed the actress ran out of her house as a brawl broke out on her quiet street at around 8pm on Friday, March 15.
At the start of the footage obtained by The Sun, Tina, who was wearing a black and white striped top and pink jogging bottoms, can be seen trying to calm tensions between two female youths.
One can be heard saying: ‘You’ve touched my mum.’
Tina can be heard urging one of the girls to release their hold on the other, saying: ‘Let go of her…. stop. Let go of her, I just said stop. Let go of her.’
The footage goes on to show the teenage girls kicking each other, and then Tina who wades in to break up the fight.
The pair are seen wrestling with each other and with Tina, who briefly gets the girl in a headlock.
The girls are seen getting her hair pulled and being punched.
A girl with blonde hair then gets involved shouting ‘who the f*** do you [think you] actually are, touching my mum!’

This then sparks another wrestling match between the two teens, with the Coronation Street star caught in the middle.
The footage then cuts out and when it restarts shows a melee involving the actress and three girls.
On Thursday night, a source told The Sun: ‘Tina went straight to meet her Corrie bosses this morning.
‘She told them she was the victim here, and they have accepted that. They also think the incident has traumatised her so have been very sympathetic.’
In addition to the mother-of-two contacting the police, a relative of one of the children is also believed to have got in touch with officers.
The soap-star is now living in fear of reprisals after the brawl and is increasing security around the home she shares with her husband Adam Crofts – a personal trainer – and their two children.
A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police said: ‘Officers are investigating reports of an assault in Stockport between 8pm and 9pm on 15 March.’
The mother of one of the teen girls involved in the fight claimed the group had been looking for trouble after a fall-out over a boy. She also claimed that Tina had defended her daughter.
She said: ‘Tina has been pretty brave in stepping in. Tina is only little herself and she was defending my daughter, so I am extremely grateful to her.

‘You can hear in her voice on the video that she is frightened. This is also not like her, and she is a really good person.
‘I have thanked her and would have done the same if it was my house.’
Mother-of-two Tina is left her home early yesterday morning and went to the ITV studios in Salford Quays where she told bosses she had been left traumatised by the violenbce outside her home.
She has been given time off work after the attack which is said to have left her ‘traumatised’.
