Warwickshire Police are appealing for witnesses after two teenagers, aged 14 and 15, were allegedly raped after being approached by two men outside a McDonalds restaurant.

It is understood that the two girls were approached at around 7pm on Saturday outside the fast food chain in Nuneaton town centre.

One of the victims was raped by the first suspect in Riversley Park between 7pm and 8pm, while the other victim was raped by the second suspect in Jubilee Park between the hours of 7pm and 10pm, police believe.

No arrests have been made but a full investigation is under way.

“These were shocking incidents and were devastating for both victims who are being supported by specially trained officers,” Detective Inspector Paul Sartoris said.

“The public can expect to see a heightened police presence in and around Nuneaton town centre while officers continue to conduct their enquiries.

“We have also increased patrols and two scene guards will remain in place over the coming days.”

DI Sartoris urged anyone who may have witnessed either incident, or has dashcam footage after driving close to either of the two parks, to contact police.

The first suspect was described as a white man, around 5ft 5in tall with tanned skin and straight black hair. He was reported to have been wearing a black cap, black trousers, a black puffer coat, and had pierced ears with diamond stud earrings.

The second suspect was also described as a white man who was 5ft 5in tall, but with pale skin and short black curly hair. He was believed to have been wearing a black puffer coat, black Adidas tracksuit bottoms and white trainers.
