Can you help?

We are appealing for witnesses and information after an incident involving an air rifle in Bath.

We received a report of two boys, believed to be in their early teens, discharging an air weapon in the direction of vehicles and properties in Bloomfield Road and The Wellsway at around 5.50pm on Monday 28 July.

The first boy is described as white and wearing a black cloth cap and tank top. The second boy is described as Black and wearing a light blue T-shirt.

We are now appealing for witnesses or anybody who can identify the two boys to come forward.

Inspector Dudley Bond, of the neighbourhood policing team, said: “We have not received any additional reports of this kind, and we believe this to be an isolated incident.

“It is crucial for air rifle owners to act responsibly and familiarise themselves with the relevant legislation.”

Witnesses and those with information are asked to call 101 quoting reference number 5225212830, or complete our online appeals form.

If you can help, please call 101 and give the call handler the reference number 5225212830, or complete our online appeals form.
