Appeal for witnesses to assault – Oxford

Hello Resident,

We are appealing for witnesses to an assault in Oxford.

We understand this assault will be concerning but we believed it was a targeted attack with no threat to the wider public. 

The driver of a grey Mercedes mounted the pavement and ran over two men in their twenties in St Clements at around 10.30pm. The driver then reversed in an attempt to cause the victims further injury but missed before driving off.

One of the victims suffered potentially life-changing injuries; he remains in hospital. The other victim suffered a minor injury and has been discharged from hospital.

We are investigating this as a priority so we are appealing for any witnesses or anyone with information about this assault to come forward as soon as possible.

Any witnesses or anyone with information or dashcam footage should call 101 or make a report on our website, quoting 43250470228.

Anyone with footage or images relating to the assault can send them to us to directly via this dedicated online portal.

Kind regards,
