Appeal for information

It is reported that, around 2pm on Thursday 17 November, a man, in his 40s, was assaulted at Whisby Nature Park, near Lincoln.  The location is given as along the Thorpe Lake path that runs parallel with Moor Lane.  We are appealing for anyone who was at the nature park and witnessed an assault or anything they thought was suspicious to get in touch. 

DS Vikki Goddard, Lincoln CID, Lincolnshire Police said: “We would like to speak to anyone who was at the nature park and saw anything they thought was suspicious or odd.  Whisby Nature Park is not somewhere we are often called to and we believe this to be an isolated incident.  We have spoken with the staff at the nature park including the wardens and anyone with concerns can either speak to the wardens or their local community police team.”
