Appeal to identify key witness following assault in Speedwell
Officers investigating a GBH assault which took place in Speedwell, Bristol on Sunday 16 January are appealing for a potential key witness to come forward.
Between 6pm and 6.30pm at a bus stop on Whitefield Road, a man in his 30s was assaulted with a knife following an altercation with another man.
He was treated in hospital for cuts to his neck and upper body and is now recovering.
A man in his 40s has since been charged with the offences of s18 wounding and possession of a bladed article. He has been remanded in custody pending trial.
Police believe a motorist, who reportedly stopped and spoke with both the victim and offender just prior to the assault taking place, may have vital information that could assist their investigation.
