Wiltshire Police would like to speak to a group of people following an assault in Salisbury last week.

In a short statement, they said: "We are hoping to speak to this group of individuals in connection with an assault in Salisbury last Friday (07/04).

"At around 4.30pm in Queen Elizabeth Gardens, the victim – a man in his 20s – was walking along the Town Path when he was approached by a group of white males aged in their mid to late teens.

"One of the males in the group has been abusive towards the victim and proceeded to throw a drinks can at the victim. This struck him on the head, resulting in a cut that required medical attention.

"We are appealing to the public for help in identifying the individuals in the group pictured.

"If you can help, please contact us on 101 quoting reference 54230036920."
