Search for two men after “sexual abuse” of a teenager

Police confirmed that officers are searching for two men after a teenager was allegedly sexually abused.

The duo are wanted in connection with a series of sexual offences reported by a boy from Berkshire, who is receiving ongoing support from specially trained officers from Thames Police.

Adam Hastings and Reece Upton, both 28, were last seen carrying a distinctive Bershka drawstring bag in a store in Devizes, Wiltshire, on Wednesday.

“If you see Hastings or Upton, we advise the public not to approach them and call 999. If you know where they are or may have seen them, please call 101,” said Det Ch Insp Emily Evans.

The police have now released surveillance images showing the clothes the men were last wearing.

Mr Hastings and Mr Upton both have connections to the Wiltshire and Gloucestershire regions.
