Police have released an image of a woman they want to speak to in connection with an attack on two women at a children's playground.

An assault occurred at the Winston Churchill Memorial Garden play area on Market Street, Cheltenham, on 18 January at about 10:45 GMT.

The suspect allegedly grabbed the hair of another woman and pulled her around before trying to punch another woman.

She then ran from the park with her child in the direction of the High Street, Gloucestershire Police said.

The force has issued a CCTV image of the suspect and is asking anyone who recognises her or has information about the incident to get in touch.
