Police are appealing for witnesses after a woman was injured when a firework was thrown from a vehicle on Franche Road in Kidderminster on Thursday 5 November.

The woman, aged in her 40s, was out jogging at around 7.30pm opposite Deerhurst Nursery when a firework and an egg were thrown from a passing vehicle, causing injuries to her neck.

The vehicle is described as a light brown or gold SUV-type car.

The incident is being investigated as an assault. Anyone with information, or who may have dashcam, doorbell or CCTV footage, is asked to contact police online via our website or by calling 101.

'Jog On' is a West Mercia Police initiative to tackle assaults and other perpetrator behaviour which often creates barriers to women running.

Every report helps us understand the scale of the issue and take action against those responsible.
