Police Investigate Sexual Assault Reports Involving Minors
Police are investigating two separate incidents involving minors — one concerning the sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl and another involving a pregnant 16-year-old seeking medical attention.
In the first case, the victim was reportedly assaulted by a known male in St. Johnston’s Village. A doctor examined her, and forensic evidence was collected for further analysis.
In the second case, officers were called to the Browne’s Avenue Clinic after staff reported a pregnant teenager seeking treatment in the company of an adult male.
The patient was transported to the hospital, but later left before receiving medical care.
Authorities say investigations into both matters are ongoing.
