Avon & Somerset Police are appealing for witnesses to an altercation between two men in Keynsham.

The incident happened in Ashton Way at around 2.45pm on Sunday 25th January.

Two men in their late teens have been arrested on suspicion of affray, possession of an offensive weapon, and possession with intent to supply, and have since been released on conditional bail.

CCTV enquiries have been carried out and properties have been searched.

A small, white Citroen vehicle was reportedly seen in the area at the time.

On Friday, 30th January, Neighbourhood Inspector Dudley Bond said: “Officers are conducting enquiries as part of an active investigation, and we are appealing for any additional witnesses to come forward.

“We believe several members of the public were in the area at the time and may hold information that could assist our enquiries.

“We appreciate that incidents of this nature can cause concern within the community.

“However, based on the information currently available, we believe those involved are known to one another, and we do not consider there to be any wider risk to the public.

“We are now asking for the public’s help in identifying the individuals previously described as we believe they may have information that could support and progress the investigation.”

Anybody with information is asked to call 101, quoting reference number 5226022403, or complete an online appeals form. Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or via their anonymous online form.
