Devon and Cornwall Police have issued an appeal for information following an incident at a Wetherspoons pub in Teignmouth, Devon, where a man allegedly threw a pint of beer over a woman and then hurled the glass at her.
Incident Details
The incident occurred around 5:15pm on May 13 at the Jolie Brise Wetherspoon pub on Station Road. According to police, the man doused the victim with his drink while being asked to leave the premises. He then threw the glass in her direction before fleeing the pub.
Investigations have been ongoing since the report was made, and authorities have now released an image of a man they believe may assist with their enquiries.
Police Appeal
Anyone who recognizes the man or has information is urged to contact Devon and Cornwall Police via 101 or through the police website, quoting reference number 50260122512.
Separate Incident in Liverpool
In a separate incident, Merseyside Police were called to reports of a man being shot in the neck with an air rifle in Melling, Liverpool, on July 1. Officers responded to Waddicar Lane just before 11:15am, with locals reporting armed police jumping over garden fences during a search.
A man in his 40s was taken to hospital in a stable condition. A 35-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of section 18 wounding and possession of a firearm and remains in police custody.
Sefton neighbourhood Chief Inspector Dave Uren said: “The investigation is in the very early stages as we speak to witnesses and establish what has taken place. A man has been taken to hospital and we have made an arrest but we would urgently appeal for anyone who was in the area of Waddicar Lane this morning who heard or saw anything suspicious to contact us. Weapons have no place on the streets of Merseyside as we know the devastation they can cause so my appeal would be for the public to support us by telling us what they know.”
Police closed Waddicar Lane between Rainbow Drive and Spencer's Lane following the incident, but it has since reopened. A cordon remains outside a row of shops, including a GoLocal newsagents and a pharmacy.
