Police are appealing for witnesses after a group of men allegedly fought in the street following a car crash in Castleford. 　

Wakefield District CID would like to speak to anyone who witnessed the incident on Lock Lane in Castleford at about 6.50pm on Sunday 2 April.　

It occurred after a Mercedes 4x4 and a BMW collided on the road. A number of men then got out of the cars and began fighting. They dispersed after a few minutes and fled into an estate.　

Following enquiries a 25-year-old Castleford man was arrested on suspicion of affray and has been released pending continuing enquiries.　

Detective Inspector Dan Tillett of Wakefield District CID, said: "We are continuing investigations into this incident which we believe was witnessed by a number of residents at the time. We would like to speak to anyone who saw the collision between the two cars, the fight or who can help identify those involved.
