Officers investigating a public order incident in Odiham have made their tenth arrest.
Police were called at 3.15pm on Sunday 8 October last year to reports of a disturbance involving two groups of people at a site off the A287 Farnham Road, near the Chalky Lane junction.
A man sustained an injury to his head from what we believe to have been a strike with a crowbar, while a man at the scene was also reportedly seen with a gun. We believe all the parties involved are known to each other.
Since it was reported to us, officers have been carrying out extensive enquiries and have now arrested a total of ten men.
A 22-year-old man from Wokingham was yesterday (8 April) arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent and violent disorder.
He has been bailed with conditions until 8 July, pending further enquiries.
It comes after officers made nine arrests between October and February:
Meanwhile, on 5 January, a 31-year-old man from Odiham voluntarily attended a police station and was interviewed under caution in relation to the incident. He remains under investigation.
Officers are continuing to appeal for anyone who has any information about what happened to contact us.
In particular, we want to hear from motorists who were driving on the A287 Farnham Road near Odiham at around 3.15pm on Sunday 8 October. You may hold footage that could be important to our investigation.
Anyone with information is asked to contact us on 101, quoting Op Timely or the reference number 44230411773, or you can submit information by going to our website: https://www.hampshire.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/cor/tell-us-about-existing-case-report/
