A heated argument led to the arrest of a suspect who is believed to have assaulted a woman and carried a knife.

At around 3pm on Monday, police received reports of a male and female having an argument in the area of Guildford Avenue, Sandringham Road, and Buckingham Road, along with reports that the woman had been assaulted.

A short time later, officers arrested a man in his 20s on suspicion of assault and possession of a bladed article.

The suspect has since been released on bail. 

Officers have carried out enquiries by going house to house and examining CCTV footage.

They are now appealing for witnesses to the disturbance in Lawn.

A Wiltshire Police spokesperson said: “If you have information that could help with our enquiries, please contact us on 101 quoting reference number 54240064288.”
