Man 'grabbed by throat' after row with cyclists

Police have released an image of a man they would like to speak to in connection with the assault

A driver was followed home and attacked following a disagreement with two cyclists in the Cotswolds, police have said.

The incident happened in the Moreton-in-Marsh area of Gloucestershire at about 11:30 BST on 1 July.

It was reported that the driver had spoken to the cyclists before they followed the car back to the man's home. It is alleged one of the men then grabbed the man by the throat as he got out of his car, leaving him with marks on his neck and grazes to his arm.

Gloucestershire Police is appealing for information and has released an image of a man it would like to speak to. The force has also urged anyone with information to get in touch.

Both of the cyclists left after a neighbour intervened, Gloucestershire Police said.

The force described the man accused of attacking the driver as a white man, 6ft in height and of an athletic build.

He was wearing a white cycling helmet, black shorts, glasses and black and white trainers and rode a white bike with black tyres.

The second suspect was also described as a white man, 6ft in height and of an athletic build and with black hair.

He wore black Lycra and his bike was red, yellow and green in colour.
