Two men arrested over attack on girl, 14, who was raped twice in one night

Detectives investigating two separate rapes of a 14-year-old girl in Birmingham have arrested two men.
The pair, aged 35 and 27, were arrested on Saturday morning on suspicion of carrying out the first rape of the girl, on Tuesday evening, following the release of CCTV images of two suspects.
Officers continue to appeal for information in connection with the second rape in the early hours of Wednesday. The victim had sought help after the first rape at Witton station when she was attacked by a man in a car.
DCI Tony Fitzpatrick of British Transport Police said: “There have been significant developments after we released CCTV images of two men we would like to speak with. I’d like to thank the public and the media for the overwhelming support in sharing this appeal.
Both these arrests relate to the first incident at Witton station on Tuesday evening this week. Our investigation into the second incident in the vehicle continues at a pace. The young victim was raped for a second time in a vehicle close to Witton station at approximately 2am.
“I am still looking to hear from anyone who lives locally to Witton and saw a young girl walking by herself during the early hours of Wednesday morning. If you saw any vehicle or any person acting suspiciously then please get in touch as soon as possible.”
The man suspected of carrying out the second rape is described as thick set, about 5ft 6in, with large biceps.
