One month on: Did you witness Bedford assault?

We are continuing to appeal for information one month after a man was seriously assaulted in Bedford.

Between 9.30pm and 10.30pm on Wednesday 13 July, a man was seriously assaulted in Aspley Road. He sustained life-threatening injuries and was taken to hospital where he remains in a critical condition.

Detective Constable Rebecca Crowley, investigating, said: “It’s been a month since this incident occurred, we are still working to establish the circumstances around what happened and piecing pieces of evidence together.

“The victim received horrific injuries and remains in a critical condition, and  thoughts go out to his friends and family.

“We are urging anyone who was in the vicinity of Aspley Road or Edward Road, or who has any dash cam or CCTV footage, to get in touch as any information could assist our enquiries and help us piece together how this awful assault occurred.”

Three men were previously arrested in connection with the incident but have since been released on bail.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101 or online quoting reference 40/40475/22.
