Police are appealing for information after a group of teenagers attacked a wheelchair user, leaving him with potentially life-changing injuries.
The vulnerable man in his 30s was attacked alongside a friend in his 40s in the Cathedral Green area of Salisbury, Wiltshire, at around 9.15pm on 19 July.
The pair were set upon by a group of four youths and were chased into the High Street and on to Crane Street.

Both sustained injuries in the assault, though the damage inflicted on the wheelchair user's leg during the 'sustained attack' could be life-changing.
Police believe that, due to the location of the attack, there could well be witnesses among the public yet to come forward.
CCTV images show a group of youths in their mid-teens, three males and one female.
In the photos, one of the boys is pictured topless, while another can be seen in a blue t-shirt, and the third is wearing a grey hoodie with white writing on the front.
