Police investigating an unprovoked assault in Shrewsbury earlier this year, have release CCTV images as they follow new lines of enquiry.

Police release CCTV images following unprovoked assault in Shrewsbury

The incident is reported to have taken place outside The Dana prison between 4.20am and 5am on Sunday, 26 February.

A 30-year-old man was outside the premises when he was approached by two unknown men who assaulted him before leaving the area.

The victim suffered injuries to his thigh believed to have been caused by a bladed item.

He was taken to Shrewsbury hospital where his wounds were treated.

Investigating officers would like to identify the individuals from both CCTV images as they may have important information or witnessed the assault.

If you have any information, or recognise yourself or any of the individuals pictured, West Mercia Police would like you to contact DC Will Quan on 101 and quote reference number 166s of 26 February 2017.

Alternatively you can contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
