Police are searching for witnesses and dashcam footage as they investigate an alleged rape on Christmas Day.

An 18-year-old was reportedly attacked in Leamington Spa town centre in the early hours of December 25.

Between 1am and 3.30am, it is believed that passers-by may have assisted a teenage white female in a white coat.

"It has been reported that the woman was the victim of a rape," a Warwickshire Police spokesperson said.

"To further our investigation, we would like to speak to any of these passers-by who spoke to the woman between these times.

"We are also looking for any relevant dashcam or CCTV footage from the area of the Parade, Clarendon Avenue, Beauchamp Road, Beauchamp Avenue, or Kenilworth Road from between midnight and 4am on 25 December.

"You can make a report citing Incident 208 of 25 December on our website reporting tool , by phone on 101, or anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
