Police investigating Kettering attack which saw officers tape off area near bus stops
A 35-year-old man was taken to hospital
Police are investigating a Kettering attack which saw officers tape off an area of the town on Sunday morning (October 8).
A cordon was in place in Horsemarket after the incident, which took place near the bus stop shelters at about 4am.
A 35-year-old man was taken to hospital after he was punched and hit his head when he fell.
A Northamptonshire Police spokeswoman said the attack was initially deemed to be more serious, which is why they taped off the area, but that a hospital assessment thankfully found that the victim’s injuries were not life-threatening or life-changing.
The spokeswoman said: “We would appeal for witnesses and if anyone has any information they should contact us on 101 using incident number 23000624674.”
No description of any suspect was available at this stage.
