A MAN in his sixties – understood to be MP Dan Norris – has been further arrested on suspicion of rape, sexual assault, voyeurism and upskirting, cops say.

The MP for North East Somerset and Hanham was suspended from the Labour Party in April after it was revealed he was arrested on child sex and rape claims.

Norris was initially arrested on suspicion of sexual offences against a girl, rape, child abduction and misconduct in a public office after an police raid on his constituency home.

Avon and Somerset Police said they are no longer actively investigating any sexual offences against children.

But the force added that the original rape and misconduct in a public office investigation is continuing.

All of the offences are alleged to have occurred between the 2000s and 2020s.

A party spokesman previously said: “Dan Norris MP was immediately suspended by the Labour Party upon being informed of his arrest.”

The force said: “An investigation into allegations of non-recent sexual offences which resulted in the arrest of a man in his 60s is continuing.

“The investigation, which is being led by officers with Operation Bluestone, our dedicated rape and serious sexual assault investigation team, began in December 2024.

“The man was initially arrested in April 2025 on suspicion of sexual offences against a girl (under the Sexual Offences Act 1956), rape (under the Sexual Offences Act 2003), child abduction and misconduct in a public office.

“Following our inquiries, the man has been further arrested on suspicion of rape against a second woman, sexual assault against a third woman, as well as voyeurism and upskirting against a number of women.

“We’re no longer actively investigating any sexual offences against children, but the original rape and misconduct in a public office investigation is continuing. All offences are alleged to have occurred between the 2000s and 2020s.”
