Two teenage girls have been sexually assaulted in south Belfast.

It happened at Ormeau Park between 8.30pm and 10.30pm on Saturday night and involved two men believed to be in their early 20s.

Police believe the suspects had a bulldog with them at the time and are appealing for information.

A PSNI spokesperson said: "One of the males is described as having short ginger hair and a ginger beard; approximately six-feet tall, of a thin build and thought to be aged in his early twenties and wore a dark-padded jacket. 

"The second male is described as having short hair, of thin build, approximately six-feet tall and is also thought to be aged in his early twenties.

"The males are reported to have had a dog, possibly a bulldog, with them."



Detective Inspector Leah Crothers said: "We are working to establish the circumstances of what occurred, and are appealing for anyone who has any information that could assist our investigation to call us.

"In particular, we are keen to hear from anyone who may have been in Ormeau Park between 8:30pm and 10:30pm, and saw two males matching these descriptions, or has footage of them in the Park to contact us.

“We would also like to speak to anyone who was travelling on the Ormeau Road between 10:50pm and 11:20pm to check their footage to see if they have captured footage of males matching these descriptions.  

“Anyone who can assist our investigation is asked to call detectives on 101, quoting reference number 2232 of 13/06/20."
