Ridgeway Road Police are searching for two men they think may have witnessed an attempted murder in Fishponds earlier this year. Three people have been charged with attempted murder after a 17-year-old male sustained a number of stab wounds at about 8pm on Friday, February 12 in the Ridgeway Road area. A witness recalls seeing two men in the area at the time who police say so far they have been unable to trace. The pair are described as white, in their 20s, of average build and almost 6ft tall and we’ve been told it looked like they were out running.
