We are appealing for witnesses and information following a report of an assault in Church Crookham.

Officers received a report that a woman in her 40s had been assaulted by a man known to her between 11pm on Saturday 4 January and 1am on Sunday 5 January.

The incident took place near a stream behind Wickham Place in Church Crookham. The woman had suffered bruising to her eye and legs.

We are still trying to piece together the exact circumstances of what happened and would like to speak with witnesses.

Officers believe a member of the public was in the area at the time and saw what happened. Did you witness the incident? Do you have any information which could help our investigation?

As part of our enquiries, a 21-year-old man from Fleet was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. He has been bailed with conditions, pending further enquiries.

Anyone with information is asked to contact 101, quoting 44250007478. You can also submit information to us online here: https://www.hampshire.police.uk/tua/tell-us-about/cor/tell-us-about-existing-case-report/
