Update in relation to Bournemouth rape investigation
A man has been identified following a CCTV appeal in relation to an ongoing Bournemouth rape investigation.
The incident occurred at an address in Meyrick Road on the night of Friday 10 September into the early hours of Saturday 11 September 2021. It was reported that the 18-year-old female victim was raped and sexually assaulted by two men she had met earlier that evening while on a night out in Christchurch.

We would like to thank everyone who shared our appeal.
