We are appealing for witnesses following a report of an assault in Southampton on Tuesday 15 October.
It is reported that an altercation occurred between three people inside a vehicle on Thornhill Park Road at around 8.40pm. During the altercation it is further alleged that one of the passengers – a man – was physically assaulted by the other two people inside the vehicle.
As the incident unfolded, a member of the public is said to have attempted to intervene and as part of our ongoing enquiries, we are keen to speak to this individual. If this was you, we would really urge you to reach out and contact us.
We then received a report that a vehicle had collided with a tree and then set alight.
Hampshire & Isle of Wight Fire and Rescue Service attended to distinguish the vehicle fire.
Our enquiries are ongoing in relation to the incident to ascertain the exact circumstances.
If you are the person who intervened in the incident, or if you witnessed the incident take place or perhaps have dash-cam or CCTV footage, we would ask that you contact us on 101, quoting crime reference 44240449315.
