A 13-year-old schoolboy has admitted carrying out two separate sexual assaults on women in Kilburn.

The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was arrested at an address in Kilburn on Sunday afternoon in connection with the incidents in Kilburn Park Road and Saltram Crescent on June 1 and June 17, respectively.

He was subsequently charged and appeared at Hammersmith Youth Court yesterday where he admitted two counts of sexual assault.

He has been bailed to return to the same court on July 13.
