A cyclist ‘punched’ a Skegness man in the face after being challenged for allegedly riding too close to his dog.
The man in his 40s was walking his dog on Lincoln Road close to the junction with Albany Road around 2.20pm on Tuesday, October 11, before getting into a row with a cyclist.

The cyclist is then alleged to have punched the man in the face.
The offender is described as a male suspect is described as a white male, 6ft 4” tall, of slim build, and with short brown hair.
