Police are appealing for information following a late-night assault in Macclesfield.

Officers are investigating an incident believed to have occurred between 12am and 1am on Monday, February 2, on Back Wallgate.

A male victim sustained a serious injury to his hand after being assaulted.

The suspect is described as a white male, aged in his early to mid-20s, with blonde hair.

PC Kate Simmons said: "We're appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the incident to come forwards.

"The same goes for anyone who may have been in the area at the time and saw anything which may be useful to our ongoing investigation.

"We'd also ask people to review CCTV/video doorbell/dashcam footage to see if it captured anything relevant."

Anyone with information is asked to contact Cheshire Police online or call 101 and quote IML-2262885.
