We are appealing for information after a man was assaulted with a golf club in Stoke-on-Trent.
We were called to London Road just after 11am on Thursday (5 January).
Our colleagues from West Midlands Ambulance Service also attended.
On arrival, officers found a man, in his 40s, with a broken leg and facial injuries having reportedly been assaulted with a golf club.
He was treated at the scene by paramedics and taken to hospital for treatment.
His injuries are believed not to be life-threatening or life-changing.
The offender was described as a white man, of a slim build, around 6ft in height and with dark hair with blonde dye.
Inquiries are ongoing.
If you were in the area at the time, or have any relevant CCTV or dashcam footage that could help us with our inquiries, contact us on Facebook, Twitter, or call 101, quoting incident number 238 of 5 January.
Alternatively, contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
