Two suspects arrested after street attack

Police investigating a street disturbance that left a man with a broken jaw have arrested two suspects.

The victim approached officers in Front Street, Arnold, at around 2am on 28 October 2023 to report he had twice been punched in the face.

Detectives have been studying CCTV footage, interviewing witnesses and carrying out other local inquiries as part of their investigation into the incident.

Officers arrested two men, both aged 22, on suspicion of committing grievous bodily harm with intent on Thursday (16 November).

Detective Inspector Claire Gould, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:

“The victim suffered a very nasty injury in this attack so we have been working hard to investigate exactly what happened.

“This level of violence on our streets is something we will never tolerate. Anyone committing this type of offence can expect to be met by a robust response from the force and a visit from officers.

“I’m pleased we have arrested these two suspects but our investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with any information should call police on 101, quoting incident number 23000668274, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111."
