THREE teenagers were arrested following an attempted robbery on Victoria Road.
The incident happened at around 8.15pm on March 15 outside Mr Cod.
A 16-year-old boy from Swindon was approached by three men who demanded he hand over his money and when he refused, he was hit over the head.
The three teenage boys have since been released under investigation while officers continue to carry out enquiries.
A Wiltshire Police spokeswoman said: “ We’d urgently like to speak to anyone who may have been driving past who may have dash cam footage of the incident, or of the three males involved.”
Anyone with information should call 101.
