Police investigating a reported rape in the Exeter area are still trying to trace two people who may be able to help with their enquiries.

Detectives recently released images of four people and have thanked the public for helping to trace two of them.

None of them are suspected of any wrongdoing but might have interacted with the victim earlier in the night at The Vaults nightclub in Exeter city centre.

The incident happened in Musgrave Row, Exeter, and at the car park behind Topsham Fire Station between 2am and 5am on Monday 17 October.

DI Tanya Youngs said: "We now know who two of the four people are and would like to thank the public for their assistance in this matter.

"But we need to trace the remaining two (pictured) as well.

"We would again like to stress that the people we wish to identify are not suspected of any wrongdoing."

If you know who these people are or recognise yourself, please contact police via our website here or by calling 101 quoting reference 50000748636.

Three men were arrested on suspicion of rape. A 32-year-old from Torquay was released on police bail until 13 January, 2023. A 26-year-old from Exeter and a 22-year-old from Topsham were released under investigation.
