Appeal after two men injured following fight in Ripley

Officers are appealing for witnesses to an incident in which two men suffered slash wounds following a fight in Ripley.

It is believed the incident happened inside, or close to, The Crib Bar, Church Street, at around 4am today (4 September).

The two men, who are both in their 20s, suffered non-life-threatening injuries in the fight which is believed to have involved a small group of men.

Officers are keen to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time and may be able to help with their enquiries – in particular anyone that saw an old-style black Jeep Cherokee 4x4 which it is believed may have been driven by two people involved in the incident.
