A man has suffered serious injuries after falling from a cafe's balcony in Luton - and police are appealing for information.

Just before 1.30pm on Wednesday (8/2), two men became involved in an altercation at the Coffee Pot in Dunstable Road.

One subsequently ended up falling from a balcony - he remains in hospital in a stable condition.

The other man involved is described as an Asian man with short black hair and is approximately 5’9”.

Detective Inspector Nick Gardner from Bedfordshire Police said: “These events played out in a public place where lots of people will have witnessed what happened.

“We are trying to understand what happened in the lead up to this altercation, as well as the moments after it.
