The victim sustained minor injuries but has since been discharged from hospital. 

Four of the offenders are described as teenagers dressed in all black tracksuits and wearing a black rucksack. 

A fifth offender is described as a teenager wearing a white t-shirt, black tracksuit trousers and a black rucksack. 

Five arrests have been made in connection with this incident. 

We understand this incident will be distressing for local residents, but we are conducting enquiries in the area and investigating this as a top priority. 

There will be an increased presence of police officers in the area, and so if you have any concerns, please do not hesitate to speak to one of them. 

If you have CCTV cameras or a video doorbell, or if you were driving in the area with a dash-cam, please check your recordings in case they have captured something that could support our investigation. 

Anybody who was within the area of The Common and witnessed the incident is urged to contact Thames Valley Police, either by making a report online or by calling 101, quoting reference 43260311158.
