A man has been arrested on suspicion of four counts of grievous bodily harm following an assault in Malmesbury.

The incident happened in the High Street shortly before 1am this morning (30 January).

A man in his 20s was assaulted and suffered a serious injury to his face.

Two men in their 20s, and a man in his 30s, were also assaulted during the incident although their injuries were not as serious.

A man in his 30s from London has been arrested on suspicion of four counts of GBH and is currently in custody in Gablecross, Swindon.

Duty Insp Gareth Edwards said: “This was a nasty assault which has left two men requiring hospital treatment for their injuries.

“Extensive enquiries are currently ongoing however I am pleased that we have been able to swiftly arrest one individual who remains in custody for questioning.

“As part of our investigation, we’d like to hear from anyone who witnessed the incident who has not already spoken to police.”
