Humberside Police are appealing for witnesses after reports of an aggravated burglary which a man has been left with injuries to his back, nose and eye.

We were called to a report that two men had entered a flat in Kesteven Street, Sleaford.

The person living at the property reported being assaulted by a blunt object.

Cash, Armani watches, and two Hugo Boss bracelets were reported stolen during the incident. It is believed that the people involved were known to each other, and the suspects left in the direction of Bramling Way.

Police said:

"We are asking for anyone with dashcam, doorbell or CCTV footage of those streets and the surrounding area to check their cameras for between 8.30pm and 10.15pm to see if they have captured two men in the area, or anyone who may have been acting suspiciously."

"A 16-year-old boy was arrested a short distance away in the early hours of this morning on suspicion of possession of cannabis, and aggravated burglary that evening, along with a 15-year-old boy who was arrested on suspicion of burglary.

"19-year-old man was also arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary several hours later."
