    Greymouth Police are asking for information about historic sexual offending against boys on the West Coast


    Allan William Walton's today pleaded guilty to multiple historic sexual offences from the late 1950s to the 1980s.

    Victims identified so far are linked though sports clubs the now 87-year-old frequented.

    They include West Coast junior rugby league clubs and the Greymouth Memorial pools.

    Walton was also known at the time by the nickname 'Skeeter'.
