Police were called to the River Adur near Ropetackle on June 24th following the discovery of clothing along the river banks.
Officers say the sizes of the garments, including a Shoreham Academy blazer, suggest that they belong to a teenager. While there is no evidence of anyone entering the river, authorities are prioritizing the welfare of the clothing’s owner.

Sussex Police have issued an appeal for assistance in identifying the items and their rightful owner. If you recognize these clothes or have any information, please contact Sussex Police at 101 or online, quoting reference number 0739 24/06/2023.
