BURY ST. EDMUNDS, England — Two Cambridge men charged with assaulting a pair of RAF Mildenhall airmen outside of a Newmarket nightclub nearly three months ago were rereleased on bail Thursday morning.

William Harper, 21, and Edward Harper, 18, walked out of Bury St. Edmunds Magistrates Court on Thursday morning following their 10 a.m. appointment, after their attorney said he had not received the closed-circuit television footage of the alleged assault. It’s unclear if the two men are related.

The magistrates agreed to reconvene the hearing on Nov. 9.

Both are charged with assault in connection with the July 29 incident involving two 100th Maintenance Squadron airmen. One of the airmen faced charges for his involvement in the incident with the two men.

Senior Airman Antonio Barranca, 26, was sentenced to 80 hours of community service and a $100 fine at a hearing earlier this month at the same court for possession of an article with a point or blade, according to a court clerk.

One of the Cambridge men had to be treated for a stab wound, according to the Suffolk Constabulary.
