Police are trying to track down two men - wearing balaclavas - after two women were attacked in Bournemouth.

The car they were in had its rear windscreen and another window smashed on Walton Road in Ensbury Park at around 6.00pm on Wednesday 28th February.

One of the women was also kicked, after the passenger door was opened, before they were able to drive away.

The men involved were both wearing balaclavas, and one is believed to have been wearing a black Trapstar jacket.

PC Jake Grant-James, of Bournemouth police, said:

“Fortunately neither of the female victims sustained any injuries as a result of this incident, but it must have been a very distressing experience for them.

“We have been carrying out a number of enquiries into this matter and I am appealing for any witnesses or any motorists who may have captured relevant dashcam footage to please come forward.”

If you can help with any information, you're asked to call Dorset Police on 101, quoting reference number 55240030755.
