A MAN who breached a film set in Bath assaulted two people who tried to stop him.

Police are hunting the man after an incident in Henrietta Street between 11am and 3.30pm on Friday, August 2.

The route was closed for filming, Avon & Somerset Police said, and access was restricted.

“When he was challenged for trying to pass the closure, he assaulted two people, causing injury to one of them, before leaving the scene,” a spokesperson said.

The man is described as white, in his late 60s, approximately 5ft 10ins tall, of slim build, with fair/grey hair and glasses.

He was seen wearing a faded neon yellow bucket hat, a white short-sleeved shirt and beige/light grey shorts.

“We believe there were several members of the public in the area, some who may have captured the incident on their mobile phone,” the spokesperson added.

“We’d like to hear from anyone with information.”

Bath has provided the backdrop for a number of films and TV shows in recent years, including the likes of Bridgerton and Wonka.

Anyone who can help should contact police on 101 and give the call handler the reference number 5224202119, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
