Police have cautioned three men after they were connected with an assault in Kingswood in January.
The assault took place on January 18 in Wotton-under-Edge, with the victim being left with injuries to his ear, nose and head.
Now though, it has been confirmed they have only received a warning for the incident.
Gloucestershire Police issued a CCTV appeal, hoping to identify two men they wanted to speak to in connection with the incident.
That resulted in three men from Wotton-under-Edge receiving a caution last week.
