Officers investigating a serious assault in Ryde on the Isle of Wight are releasing details of a man that they would like to speak to in relation to their enquiries.
At some point between 11.30pm and midnight on Tuesday 22 November 2016, a 
51-year-old man was assaulted on Newport Street. He was treated for injuries to his face and leg and was later released from hospital.
Considering European arrest warrant
Henry Thomas Henderson, aged 51, of Downsview in Sandown is being sought by officers for questioning in relation to this assault. We believe he may have left the local area and that he may have travelled to Wilmslow in Cheshire in February 2017.

Henderson is described as:
- White.
- 5ft 11ins tall.

- Scottish accent
