The Metropolitan Police has urged any potential victims of television personality David Walliams to report criminal allegations, after he was reportedly accused of preying on teenage girls.
In a statement, the Met Police said it has contacted The Guardian and ITV News to ensure that any potential victims they have spoken to are aware of how to come forward with any criminal allegations.
A spokesperson for the Metropolitan Police stated, "We're aware of reports in the media in relation to allegations involving a man in his 50s."
"The Met has not received any related reports of sexual assault or any other offences. Should we receive any reports, they will be carefully assessed. Anyone who contacts the police will be supported by specialist officers."
The statement added, "Last week, we contacted the media organisations that were involved in civil proceedings relating to the protection of the identity of that individual, to ensure that any potential victims who they have spoken to could be made aware of how they could report any criminal allegations to police."
