The attack took place shortly before 2.45pm on Sunday, 31 December. When police arrived at the scene they found a 41-year-old man with facial burn injuries. He was taken to hospital although his injures are not thought to be life-threatening or life-changing. Another man aged 24 who was also injured fled to an address in Wandsworth where was later treated by paramedics.

The two men were sitting in a vehicle when two people on a moped approached them and sprayed them with a substance that later analysis showed to be ammonia.

Anybody with information on his whereabouts is requested to call Hammersmith and Fulham CID on 07901 515 793.

Alternatively, call police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
