Blue lights on a marked police car with the text

Detectives investigating an incident in Weston-super-Mare on Thursday (30 May) in which a man has smashed a car window are appealing for witnesses to come forward.

At approximately 7.40pm, a silver Mercedes has cut in front of a black Audi having followed it from Herluin Way onto Hutton Moor Road.

A man driving the Mercedes has then left his car and approached the Audi, punching a window until it smashed. This man is described as being in his early 20s, approximately 5ft 8ins or 5ft 9ins tall, of medium build with light brown hair, blue eyes and light stubble.

He left the scene after a person in a white BMW pulled up behind the two cars.

Detectives are keen to speak to the driver of the BMW, who they believe could be a key witness, and anyone else who witnessed the incident or has dashcam footage of it.
