Two teenagers are to appear before magistrates today charged with committing serious sexual assaults in Huddersfield.

The boys, who are aged 16 and 17, will appear before Kirklees Magistrates after being charged in connection with four alleged incidents of rape and attempted rape in the town.

The pair were arrested late on Wednesday evening in Huddersfield in connection with the offences which were alleged to have occurred between September and November.

In each offence female victims were allegedly sexually assaulted after meeting males in the Huddersfield area.
