A 15 year old boy from Stevenage and a 17 year old boy from Sandy and were arrested on Thursday (March 2) on suspicion of affray, and released on police bail while enquiries continue.

The incident occurred inside McDonald's, at around 1pm on Monday, January 23.

"There were a number of people in the restaurant at the time, so if you have not yet spoken to police, please get in touch as soon as possible.

"If you would prefer to remain anonymous, you can contact the independent charity Crimestoppers with any information. Thank you."
