Officers are issuing a CCTV appeal following an incident where a man was assaulted in Verwood.
It is reported that at around 8.50pm on Wednesday 4 October 2023, a man was assaulted at the Morrisons supermarket in Chiltern Drive.
The victim, a member of the shop staff, stopped a group of people who were having an altercation with another customer. One of the group then proceeded to assault the victim who sustained minor injuries. It is reported that the group then made off with stolen items and caused damage to the windows of the premises as they left.

“I have obtained CCTV images of the suspect of the alleged assault and I would urge anyone who knows him or witnessed the incident to please come forward.”
