Two teenage boys questioned over ‘serious sexual assault’

Two teenage boys were arrested and questioned by police after a report of a serious sexual assault on a teenage girl in Co Antrim.

Police said they were investigating the alleged incident in the Clonavon Terrace area some time between 7.30pm and 10.30pm on Saturday.

They said specialist officers are supporting the girl who is “extremely distressed”.

“Two teenage boys have since been arrested in connection with the investigation, and are being questioned in custody,” a police spokesperson said.

“Specialist officers are continuing to support the girl who has been left extremely distressed and traumatised by what has happened.

“We would reiterate to the public not to speculate or share information on social media, this is not helpful towards the ongoing investigation.

“If you were in the Clonavon Terrace or Waveney Road area yesterday evening, and witnessed what happened or noticed anything suspicious, please make contact with police on 101, quoting reference number 1522 07/06/25.”
