Manhunt launched after woman raped in Humberside flat

A woman has reported being raped at a flat in Hull sparking a major police manhunt.

Police released a CCTV image of two men they would like to talk to in connection with the sex attack in Hull at around 1am on Thursday (3 July).

The victim, who is being supported by specialist officers, reported the early morning attack at an address in Princes Avenue.

Three images released by Humberside Police show two men wearing dark coats as they walk together down the street.

DCI Leanne Murphy said: “The CCTV images we have released today are from Thursday (3 July) and we are looking to identify and speak with the men in the images, as they may have valuable information that could assist with our investigation.

“Extensive enquiries have been, and continue to be, underway including hundreds of hours of CCTV footage from the local area being reviewed. We also continue to work closely with partner agencies, as well as our protecting vulnerable people unit to establish the circumstances around this incident.

“Whilst rare, incidents of this nature naturally cause concern within local communities, and I’d like to reassure the public that we are doing everything we can to investigate this incident which occurred within an address on Princes Avenue.’

Anyone with information on the attack or who recognises the men is asked to call 101.
