A young child was taken to hospital after a group of young men were involved in an altercation on a bus in Bristol.
Police were called to a disturbance on a bus in Stapleton Road, Easton, Bristol, just after 7.30pm on Sunday, December 14.
Callers reported a group of young men or teenagers involved in an altercation on the bus. They had all left the scene in the short time it took officers to arrive.
Some are understood to have made off in a small silver hatchback.
A young child passenger on the bus went to hospital as a precaution after one of those involved in the scuffle reportedly fell onto them but thankfully was discharged following assessment.
Officers have yet to identify anyone involved but enquiries continue.
Anyone who was on the First Bus number 24 service at the time, and has yet to speak with officers, or anyone who was near the Armoury Square bus stop at the time, is urged to call 101 and give the reference 5225351051.
