Police in Worcestershire are appealing for witnesses following a public order incident at The Cross in Worcester City Centre on Sunday.

At around 10pm fireworks were thrown into the crowds in the area of St Nicholas Street, Worcester.

Sergeant Pete Frankish from the local Safer Neighbourhood Team said “This was extremely reckless by the person responsible, with the potential for injury being high due to the amount of people in the immediate vicinity.

"As a result of fireworks being thrown two police officers were struck but luckily were uninjured.”
