Update: Man comes forward following CCTV appeal in connection with a reported rape in Bournemouth
Detectives investigating a report of rape at a Bournemouth hotel say a man has come forward following a CCTV appeal.
The reported incident occurred at around 3am on Saturday 21 May 2022 at the Durley Dean Hotel in West Cliff Road after the victim, who is aged in her late teens, had been out for the evening with a friend.
The victim met the man in the town and they returned to the hotel, when the offence is reported to have occurred.
On Monday 30 May 2022 detectives issued a CCTV image of a man they wished to speak to in connection with the incident. Subsequently, an 18-year-old man from Bournemouth has contacted Dorset Police and is assisting with the investigation.
We would like to thank those members of public who also contacted the Force.
