Man arrested following alleged violent argument at car boot sale
Main article content
On Sunday 12 May, officers were called to a report of a serious assault at a car boot sale in Lea Marston.
During an alleged dispute over the sale of a car roof box, a man was reportedly punched in the head and had to be taken to hospital by ambulance services.
It was later reported that the victim had suffered a bleed on the brain.
Following this, a 28-year-old man from West Bromwich has been arrested on suspicion of GBH assault.
DS Michael Brennen said “There’s never a good reason to assault someone.
“Often only one punch placed in anger can lead to life-changing injuries for the recipient, and you will have to live with that fact – along with the legal consequences for serious assault – for the rest of your life.”
