A MAN has sustained a broken cheekbone and a broken nose following an attack on him and his friend outside a snooker club in Chippenham.

The 23-year-old was out with his 25-year-old friend when they were jumped by a group of men in the club's car park in Ivy Road Industrial Estate at 2.15am on March 11.

The friend did not sustain any visible injuries.

PC Ashleigh Bray said: “Unfortunately we don’t have a description of those involved but we would like to hear from anyone who was in this area of Chippenham in the early hours of 11 March who may have seen a group of males acting suspiciously.

“One of the men sustained serious face injuries and we are keen to hear from anyone who may be able to assist our investigation.”
