POLICE
In relation to an incident in Leeds on Monday, where a 16-year-old girl was arrested on suspicion of a homophobic
public order offence, West Yorkshire Police has now reviewed the evidence and made the decision to take no further
action.
This concludes the criminal investigation and immediately releases the girl from her bail. Her family has been updated.
West Yorkshire Police's Professional Standards Directorate is continuing to carry out a review of the circumstances
after receiving a complaint in relation to the incident.
Assistant Chief Constable Oz Khan said: "We recognise the significant level of public concern that this incident has
generated, and we have moved swiftly to fully review the evidence in the criminal investigation which has led to the
decision to take no further action.
"Without pre-empting the outcome of the ongoing review of the circumstances by our Professional Standards
Directorate, we would like to reassure people that we will take on board any lessons to be learned from this incident.
"We do appreciate the understandable sensitivities around incidents involving young people and neurodiversity and we
are genuinely committed to developing how we respond to these often very challenging situations."

like her "lesbian nana".
