The incident took place between 4pm and 8pm on Sunday 23rd August in the Arena Stage tent. A 50-year-old from Chelmsford was punched in the face after asking a man to stop bothering a group of girls. When the victim fell to the floor the suspect jumped on the man's left leg, breaking it in two places.

The suspect is described as a man in his 30s of large build with short brown hair and a tanned complexion.

eFestivals would like to point out that this sort of assault at festivals occurs rarely, and hopes the scumbag who perpetrated the attack is caught. If anyone witnessed this assault, or has any information about the assault, they are asked to call Chelmsford CID on 0300 333 4444 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

The Chelmsford V Festival took place at Hylands Park, Chelmsford, Essex on Saturday 22nd and Sunday 23rd August this year.

V Festival returns next year on Saturday 21st & Sunday 22nd August 2010.
