Police Scotland officers in Dumfries are seeking witnesses to an assault which took place at around 0250 hours on Sunday 13 December 2015 near to the Argos store in Church Place in the town centre. A 21 year old man from Thornhill was assaulted at this time and as a result received injuries to his nose and mouth. The assailant is described as being male, in his mid 20s, stocky build, short dark straight hair and was wearing a reindeer patterned bright red Christmas jumper and grey trousers. He spoke with a local accent.
