Man in Early 30s Raped in London Woodland – Police Hunt Two Men

A chilling attack rocked a quiet London common near The Avenue (A205) just after midnight on Wednesday, 30 June. A man in his early 30s was raped in a wooded area at the western edge of the Common. The horrific crime has shaken the community as police scramble for leads.

Two Men Present During Assault

Investigators believe two men were involved during the assault. However, due to the darkness and limited details, no descriptions of the suspects are available. The assault was only reported to police within the last week.

Detective Pleads for Witnesses

“We are determined to identify the person or persons responsible for this horrific crime and seek justice for the victim,” said Detective Sergeant Ross Burrell. “A significant period has passed since the attack, but we believe someone out there has crucial information. If you were on the Common that night and saw or heard anything suspicious, we want to hear from you. “It doesn’t matter why you were there. We won’t judge and will handle all tips sensitively. Even the smallest detail could be vital.”
