TWO men have been arrested in connection with the serious sexual assault of two teenage women in York.
North Yorkshire Police attended a house in Fossway, York, on Monday, and spent most of Monday and Tuesday at the property, and were seen removing several bags of evidence.
A spokesman said the alleged assault happened between 2.30am and 10.30am on Monday, and the two women, who are both local and in their late teens, are receiving support from specially trained officers.
The spokesman said the men, aged 37 and 29, have been arrested and released on conditional bail while enquiries continue to establish the full circumstances surrounding the incident.
He said: "Detectives are treating it as an isolated incident and do not believe there are any wider concerns for the local community."
