Northamptonshire Police confirmed last month that the pair were making a recovery.

The man with the neck wound was taken to University Hospital Coventry where he underwent surgery after sustaining a deep wound.

The other injured man was taken to Northampton General Hospital as his face required a large amount of stitches.

Today (Tuesday) a spokeswoman for Northamptonshire Police said the force is still appealing for witnesses 23 days after the incident happened.

No arrests have yet been made.
