We are appealing for the public’s help with an ongoing investigation, following a road rage incident where it is alleged a child was punched in the stomach.

Officers were called to Guildford Road in Guildford on Saturday, 9 April following reports of a six-year-old child being assaulted. The child was in the back of a grey Toyota Hilux 4x4 parked on the A323 junction of Guidlford Road and Pirbright Road. 

It was reported the man has opened the rear car door and punched the child in the stomach before getting back into the car and driving off.
