POLICE today issued an appeal for witnesses following an attack on a teenager at Warrington at the weekend.
The 17-year-old youth was taken to hospital on Saturday night after being assaulted on the car park at the Cinnamon Brown Farm Club in Fearnhead.
A large group of youths were involved in the attack which occurred just before midnight.
They chased the youngster, knocked him to the ground and then struck him with pieces of wood.
As a result he suffered serious, but not life threatening, injuries, and is still detained at Warrington Hospital.
Police are keen to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the attack, or who may have any information on the group of youths who carried it out.
It is thought the group may have included up to seven youths, but there is no description of the offenders at this stage.
Anyone who can assist police is asked to contact Detective Constable Paul Fairhurst at Warrington CID on 0845 458 0000.
Alternatively, information can be left anonymously on the Crimestoppers hotline 0800 555 111.
