Witnesses are needed after a woman in her early 30s had a suspected noxious substance thrown at her in the middle of a Brentford street last Friday evening (June 9).
Metropolitan Police and emergency services were called to Brentford High Street shortly after 7pm where a woman was treated by paramedics at the scene. The injuries she sustained in the suspected acid attack were not life-threatening and she did not need hospital treatment.
A 20-year-old man was arrested at the scene of the incident on Friday on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm. He was taken to a west London police station and has been bailed to a date in early July. Enquiries into the incident continue.
