Appeal to trace Good Samaritans who helped Dorchester assault victim
A teenage boy was given a lift home following an attack
Police in Dorchester are looking to trace a pair of Good Samaritans who helped a teenage boy after he was assaulted.
The victim was allegedly attacked by another boy, who was known to him, at Dorchester South station.
The incident happened back in February but police have just released details of two members of the public who came to the victim's aid, and gave him a lift home in a red car.
He didn't get their details, but officers are now keen to speak to them.
PC Jacob Conachie, of Dorset Police, said:
“Fortunately the young victim did not suffer any serious injuries as a result of this incident, but it did leave him understandably distressed and it has taken some time to obtain full details from him.
“Following further enquiries, I am now looking to identify the two people who came to the assistance of this teenage boy on the evening of Monday 12 February 2024 at Dorchester South station and kindly gave him a lift home. I would urge these people to please make contact with us so we can take their account of what they saw.”
