Appeal for information following incident at Southampton store

We are appealing to the public for information following an incident at a store in Southampton.

Between 5pm and 5.10pm on Wednesday (7 June) items were taken from the Aldi store on Auckland Road in Millbrook.

Two men and a woman then attempted to leave the store’s car park in a dark Vauxhall, injuring a man in his 40s and a man in his 20s in the process.  

The man in his 40s suffered minor injuries and the man in his 20s suffered a serious injury to his neck. This is not considered to be life threatening or life changing at the current time.

Officers investigating this incident would like to hear from anyone who was in the area at the time and saw what happened, the moments leading up to it or the aftermath. Perhaps you were in the car park or the nearby area at the time and have dash cam footage which may have captured something?

Anyone with information that may assist our enquiries is asked to call 101 quoting reference 44230225758.

Alternatively, go online and submit information via https://www.hampshire.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/cor/tell-us-about-existing-case-report/

Throughout the course of our investigation we have arrested a 38-year-old man from Southampton on suspicion of theft and Section 18 Grievous Bodily Harm with intent. He remains in police custody at the current time.
