The countywide campaign sees Lancashire Police releasing pictures of a number of men they want to speak to in connection with serious offences.

Detective chief superintendent Sue Clarke said: “Robustly dealing with individuals who have committed these offences, supporting victims and preventing further offending remains a force priority and a key part of our everyday business.

“This operation gives a clear message that this type of offending will not be tolerated and emphasises our commitment to ensuring the safety of the community we serve.”

The two Preston men are:
