E-fit images have been released after a woman was injured with a hammer near Doncaster.

Police received reports of "several" men with dogs hunting deer on farmland in Lodge Lane, Brathwaite, at about 17:40 BST on 2 April.

A woman confronted the group in her tractor, with one of the men allegedly throwing a hammer at the vehicle, smashing the windscreen and hitting her in the head, South Yorkshire Police said.

Anyone who witnessed the incident or who recognises the men in the images is urged to contact the force.
