A man, aged 35, has since been arrested on suspicion of grievous bodily and remains in police custody as the investigation continues.

“We are particularly keen to speak to a number of witnesses who stopped to help the victim, as if they haven’t already spoken to us, may have information that can assist with our enquiries.”
