Man charged following two assaults at East Sussex pub
Police say the perpetrator was wielding a knife at the time
Police have charged a man following two assaults at a pub in Ringmer.
Officers were called to reports of a man with a knife outside the Cock Inn on Old Uckfield Road on October 7th.
The suspect was reported to have hit one man in the face and driven at another, causing an injury to his arm, before fleeing the scene in a VW Golf.
Police were unable to track the suspect down on the day, but two days later officers arrested 33-year-old Walter Doe of Keld Close in Uckfield.
He was charged with grievous bodily harm with intent, assault occasioning actual bodily harm, and threatening a person with a blade or sharply pointed article in a public place.
Doe has been remanded in custody to appear at court on November 8th.
