POLICE are hunting two men and a woman who assaulted a teenager.

An 18-year-old man was walking through the underpass under Sussex Street when he was approached by the trio.

One of the men either threw a bottle at the victim, or hit him with it on the head.

The victim was then chased into Sussex Street and was punched in the stomach near the traffic lights.

The three then ran off after the assault which happened at about 5.40pm last Saturday.

The victim was taken to Royal Hampshire County Hospital for treatment for minor cuts and bruising.

Det Con Jamie Richardson said: "This was a potentially serious assault and I would appeal to anyone who was driving through the busy City Road junction to contact the police if they believe they saw the incident, or if they saw the suspects in the area at the time.

Anyone with information should contact Winchester police station on 0845 045 45 45 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
