A man in his 30s has been taken to hospital after being injured by a crossbow bolt, police say.

Officers were called to reports of a man being assaulted in Wardleworth Way in Wellington, Somerset, on Monday night.

A man in his 40s was arrested nearby on suspicion of wounding with intent and is in police custody, Avon and Somerset Police (ASP) said.

A police cordon remains in place after the "shocking" incident, the force added.

The victim, in his 30s, did not receive life-threatening injuries and has since been released from hospital, ASP said.

The force is appealing for anyone with information about what happened to come forward.
