It is alleged that one of the them then used a catapult to shoot the victim in the face, causing a deep cut.

The man who was injured was taken to hospital for treatment.

Detectives have since carried out house-to-house inquiries, reviewed CCTV, and worked with neighbourhood officers in an effort to identify those involved.

Investigators are now asking for the public’s help in identifying the two people in the images, as they may have important information that could assist the investigation.
