Manhunt after rape of two teenage girls in Great Yarmouth, say police

Police are searching for a suspect following the reported rapes of two teenagers in Great Yarmouth.

Officers were called to South Beach Parade, in the Norfolk seaside resort town, at 12.37am on Saturday following reports that two girls had been raped.

A man aged in his 30s was arrested in Northamptonshire on Sunday on suspicion of rape and taken to King's Lynn Police Investigation Centre for questioning, where he remains.

Police are trying to identify and find a second suspect.

He is described as being a white man with short dark hair, dark facial hair, aged in his 30s or 40s. He was wearing blue jeans and a dark green jacket with a white stripe on both sleeves.

Chief Inspector Nick Paling, district commander for Great Yarmouth, said: "We recognise how shocking and distressing these incidents are for the victims, their families, and the wider community.

"Specialist officers have been deployed to support both girls as we work through this investigation."

A police cordon, put in place while officers carried out their enquiries, has now been lifted.
