A MAN was left with a broken eye socket after an incident at the weekend.

Police are appealing for witnesses after a fight in Arlesey on Friday evening, which began with a verbal argument outside a house in Church Lane, at about 6pm.

The two men involved in the fight are known to each other, and one was arrested by police and subsequently charged with grievous bodily harm.

But officers are still looking for information about what happened at the time, and would like to hear from anyone who witnessed the incident.

Call DC Lisa Whitson, of Bedford CID, on 01234 275227, the non-emergency number 101, or via independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.
