SIX men are being hunted by police after chasing another group of men with machetes.
Thames Valley Police said the armed attackers were seen running from an alleyway chasing the other group before injuring a man and fleeing.
The attack happened shortly before 11pm on Friday, March 25.
The six men were seen running from an alleyway from Gayal Croft in Milton Keynes, into the car park on Egerton Gate.
Another group of men were being chased before one was injured, and the six men ran back through the alleyway and into a get-away vehicle.
The man who was injured, aged in his twenties, was taken to hospital for treatment but has since been discharged.
Officers said five men were arrested on suspicion of affray in connection with the attack, and have since been released with no further action to be taken.
