UPDATE | Assault, Bodmin
Detectives investigating a report of an assault and robbery at a property in St Mary’s Road, Bodmin on Saturday 25 January are appealing for dashcam footage from around the time of the incident.
In response to this a number of units were deployed including a police helicopter and a police dog in addition to other uniformed officers, leading to a large police presence in the town.
A man in his 30s sustained serious injuries to his hand and was taken to hospital for treatment.
It is not believed that there is any wider threat to members of the public.
Detective Constable Harry Mills said: “We continue to urge anyone with any information to come forward and would particularly like anyone with dashcam footage from between 3pm and 3.45pm, in the St Mary's Road, Corporation Road, and Westheath Avenue areas of Bodmin, to save it and contact us, even if the footage they have seems insignificant."
A 16-year-old boy and a man aged 18, both from Bodmin, have been arrested on suspicion of robbery.
A 17-year-old boy from Bodmin has been arrested on suspicion of robbery and possession of Class A drugs.
All three have been released on bail, pending further enquiries.
