There have been developments in a police investigation into an incident where a man was assaulted in Sleaford twice in the same night last month.
A Lincolnshire Police spokesperson has said that the investigation into a man being assaulted twice, on Tofts Lane and then again near the Marquis of Granby in the town is progressing.
It was previously reported that between 11.30pm on Monday, November 4 and 1am on Tuesday, November 5, a man was assaulted by two males as he was walking from The Packhorse Inn, Northgate, to Tofts Lane.
Following this assault he walked back in the direction of The Marquis of Granby when he was assaulted by the same males, on Tofts Lane, before they walked off.
