Police hunt for snood-wearing tattooed man after 'burglary and assault' at home
Police are hunting for a tattooed man after a "burglary and assault" at a Seaham home.
The incident took place on Wedgewood Road on February 1 when two suspects are believed to have driven to the property in a black Mercedes.
Durham Constabulary say the duo then reportedly assaulted the resident, sometime between 10pm and 10.30pm.
One suspect has been arrested by police but officers need the public's help to identify a second man who they want to speak to in connection with the incident.
