Police are investigating after a man was left needing facial surgery following an assault at a nightclub.

Officers were called to a venue on Cheltenham's Regent Street at about 00:50 GMT on 17 November after a report that a man had been headbutted and punched.

Gloucestershire Police said it had not been able to identify a man that officers wish to speak to in relation to the incident and were now appealing for help from the public.

Anyone who recognises the man pictured in a CCTV image, or has information about the incident, has been asked to get in touch with the force.
