Police appeal following suspicious incident at Camber Docks in Old Portsmouth

Police are renewing their appeal following a suspicious incident at Camber Docks in Old Portsmouth on Sunday.

Police have released an image of potential witnesses that we’d like to identify.

Officers think they may have been seen or heard a suspicious incident on Sunday morning (8 September) between 10:30am and midday where a man in a vehicle briefly spoke to an eleven year-old boy at Camber Docks.

The boy was not hurt and there was no physical contact.

An eighty-year-old man from Portsmouth has been arrested on suspicion of causing or inciting a boy under 13 to engage in sexual activity – no penetration.

He has been bailed until 9 December while enquiries continue.

Police would like to speak to the people pictured who potentially witnessed what happened or anyone else who may be able to assist their enquiries.
