Witness appeal following assault in Southsea

We are appealing for witnesses following an assault in Southsea on Saturday evening (17^th April).

Between 8.30pm and 9.40pm, an altercation between four men took place at an address on Alhambra Road.

During the incident, one man was chased by another down Alhambra Road towards the seafront, where a further assault took place, resulting in serious but not life-threatening injuries to a man in his 20s.

We would like to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and may have seen or heard anything, as well as anyone who may have mobile phone or dash cam footage of the incident.

We are particularly keen to hear from a man seen in the area at the time who left the scene in a silver BMW 1 Series. He is described as:

• Around 23-years-old
• Approximately 6.1foot tall
• White
• Of medium build
• Wearing a black tracksuit and black baseball cap.

Anyone with information should call 101, quoting reference 44210145715.
