Police have appealed to the public for help after a man was attacked as he used a cash point.

At about 1pm on Friday officers responded to a reported disturbance on Water Street in St. George’s.

“It appears that a man using an HSBC ATM was attacked by another man,” a spokesman said.

“Apparently other men then joined in, until a member of the public intervened. All involved left the area prior to police arrival and the extent of any injury the men may have sustained remains unclear at this time.”

Any witnesses or persons with relevant information that have not yet come forward should contact the main police telephone number 295-0011.
