We wanted to update you about an ongoing investigation.

We’ve made three more arrests as part of our investigation following an attempted murder that took place in Sarisbury Green early on Thursday 29 May.

We were called shortly after 03:00am following a collision on Montefiore Drive involving a pedestrian and dark coloured car, which we now believe was an Audi, that did not stop at the scene.

A 38-year-old man was taken to Southampton General Hospital, where he remains, for treatment to serious, potentially life changing, injuries. His condition continues to be described as stable.

On Monday 2 June detectives arrested two 18-year-old men from Fareham and Hamble as part of our enquiries. They have subsequently been released without charge and will face no further action.

Overnight and into this morning (Tuesday 3 June) detecives arrested two 15-year-old boys from Fareham and Hedge End on suspicion of attempted murder, causing injury through dangerous driving, vehicle interference, theft from a shop, and failing to stop following a collision. A 24-year-old man from Fareham was also arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, causing injury through dangerous driving, and failing to stop following a collision. All three remain in custody at this time.

Officers are carrying out house-to-house enquiries and we are particularly keen to hear from anyone who may have doorbell or dashcam footage that can assist us. Additionally if you think you have been a victim of vehicle crime in the area please contact us.
