Police are appealing for witnesses after an incident last month in Ludlow.

It happened on June 7th near the Queens Public House in Lower Galdeford at around 4pm.

A man and his wife who was riding a mobility scooter were approached by a man wanting a fight.

The offender is described as white, about 55 to 60 years of age, 5’ 8” to 5’ 10” in height and of medium build. He is also said to be bald with short grey hair around the sides and had grey stubble. He was wearing a light green T-shirt with dark trousers.

Investigating officers say he pushed the man asking him to follow him into a nearby alleyway to fight.

The victim and his wife continued on their journey away from the scene but both have been shaken by the incident.
