They included a woman aged in her late teens, a man who was walking a dog – possibly a Staffordshire bull terrier, and two other men, one of whom was pushing a bike.

The man with the dog and the man on the bike walked up Fishponds Road towards Ridgeway Parade and the woman walked into Huyton Road with the other man.
