A man was due in court this morning, charged with wounding with intent following an assault in Neath on Monday afternoon (April 19).
Police were called to the incident outside Hikary’s Fishbar on Briton Ferry Road shortly after 3.30pm. A 24-year-old man suffered minor injuries during the incident.
Scott Andrews, 18, was due before Swansea Magistrates’ Court today, charged with wounding with intent. A second man, aged 25, remains on bail in connection with the incident.
Detective Inspector Dai Wells said: “We appreciate there has been concern amongst our communities about the perceived levels of crime and antisocial behaviour in the Neath area.
“There is a significant amount of proactive work ongoing by colleagues in the neighbourhood teams and within CID, and I hope the swift apprehension of those we believe to be responsible for this incident helps to reassure the public that tackling these issues remains a priority for us.”
