A teenage boy, suspected to be a Southport school pupil, has been arrested for allegedly taking indecent images of female students. The arrest followed a police investigation that led to the seizure of a device, which contained multiple inappropriate photographs of girls, some confirmed to be minors. This unsettling development prompted immediate police action and has raised serious concerns within the community regarding the welfare and safety of students.

The boy was arrested on various charges including possession of extreme pornographic images and voyeurism, and he has since been conditionally bailed. Importantly, the investigation has led to the identification of several victims, whose families have been notified. This alarming situation has led the school to take preventive measures while cooperating fully with law enforcement in examining the extent of the issue and protecting its students.

In recent weeks, family meetings have been organized to address concerns and provide support to potential victims. The school administration has expressed its commitment to handling the situation with care, emphasizing their dedication to a safe educational environment. As the investigation continues, the school and police authorities are urged to implement measures that ensure the safety and well-being of all students in the community.
