Police appeal for information about an assault in Newton Abbot

Police are investigating a report of assault on a man and a woman in Newton Abbot and have released pictures of four people they would like to speak to in connection with the incident.

It happened between 10.15pm and 10.30pm on Saturday 18 October on Devon Square, Newton Abbot.

They reported being kicked and punched. The man sustained significant facial, head and knee injuries, and the woman suffered minor head injuries. Both had to attend hospital for treatment.

Officers investigating the incident would like to identify the people pictured as they believe they may be able to assist with their enquiries.

The Police are aware that the quality of the images is low, however at this time these are the only images they have and hope that the public may still be able to assist.

Call police with information on 101, or via their website here, quoting reference number 50250270195.
