Cyclist left with broken collar bone after being pushed off his bike on Northampton canal path

The incident happened between 11.45pm on Wednesday, October 23 and 12.15am on Thursday, October 24, on the canal path, near the Far Cotton railway viaduct.

Police say a man in his 40s rode past two men and one of the men pushed him, causing him to fall to the ground and breaking his collar bone and dislocating his shoulder.

The offenders, who walked off over the bridge towards Far Cotton, were white men, aged 20 to 35 years old. One wore a woolly hat and the other had a glass bottle.

Officers are appealing for witnesses, and they would like to hear from anyone who may have captured two men fitting the description walking from the bridge towards Far Cotton on dash-cam footage.
