Police are appealing for witnesses, information and any footage which could help their investigation after a woman was assaulted in an unprovoked attack by a stranger in Cinnamon Lane, Glastonbury.

It happened at about 4.20pm on February 19. The woman was riding her bicycle when a man came up to her, pushed her off the bike and punched her repeatedly in the head.

The man then walked off in the direction of Kennard Moor Drove and the woman made for nearby the Cinnamon Lane Play Area to seek help.

Officers are keen to trace a woman who was at the play park with two children and a dog and who supported the victim following the attack.

The woman needed hospital treatment for her injuries which included a fractured wrist and concussion.

She was able to describe her attacker as white, mid 40s, about 5ft 6ins tall and stocky. She said he was clean shaven with wide cheekbones and a "jutting" chin. He wore dark-coloured clothing including a beanie hat, hip-length jacket and trousers.

If you were in the Cinnamon Lane area at about that time on Saturday February 19, have any other information or dashcam, CCTV or smart doorbell footage which could help, please call 101 and give the reference 5222041832.

Alternatively ring the independent charity Crimestoppers 100 per cent anonymously on 0800 555 111.
