I can reassure the public that we will be closely monitoring these while we carry out further enquiries.\n\n“We continue to work to try and identify all of those involved in this appalling attack and the investigation team is working around the clock to do this.\n\n“I’d like to thank the public and particularly the local Jewish community in the area for their continued support and reiterate our appeal to anyone who might have information that could assist with the investigation to get in touch with us.”\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nAnyone with any information that could assist the investigation are urged to call the police on 101 providing the reference 415 of 23 March.
