Appeal for information after incident in Gloucester Park

Police are appealing for witnesses following an incident at an event in Gloucester Park earlier this month.

Officers are investigating a report of a teenage boy on a bicycle who was seen waving a knife.

It is believed that he may have attempted to assault another teenager during the Jamaica Day event on Sunday 4 August.

The boy on the bike was described as being of mixed heritage, 5ft in height, and wearing a light coloured t-shirt.

A number of enquiries have taken place and officers would now like to speak to anyone who witnessed a teenager matching the description cycling around the park between 7pm and 7.30pm.

Anyone with information or who has any mobile phone footage which they believe to relevant is asked to contact Gloucestershire Constabulary through the website, quoting incident 379 of 4 August: https://www.gloucestershire.police.uk/contact/af/contact-us/us/a-crime-that-has-already-been-reported/

A 14-year-old boy from Gloucester has been arrested on suspicion of affray in connection with the incident. He has been released on bail while enquiries continue.
