PC Sam Warne said: "This was an isolated incident of drink-fuelled violence, which is thankfully rare on this scale, but we need to track down those responsible to prevent them from offending in this manner again."

Police also want to speak to two victims caught on camera, who have failed to come forward.

A 40-year-old man from Gosport has been arrested on suspicion of affray and has been released on bail.
