Detectives have released a CCTV image of a man they want to speak to following a serious assault in Croft Meadow Court, Northampton.

The incident happened at around 9.30pm on Tuesday, June 17, when two men called out to another man, who stopped. They then jogged up to him and assaulted him, knocking him to the ground.

A 36-year-old Northampton man has been arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent and released on police bail while enquiries continue. The second suspect remains unidentified.

Officers believe the man in the CCTV image may have vital information and are urging him — or anyone who recognises him — to come forward.
