A TEENAGER has been brutally attacked by a gang of men in Redditch whilst he was walking near the Valley Stadium.
The boy was walking along a track between Bromsgrove road and Redditch Football Club at 4pm on Wednesday (September 28) when someone grabbed his shoulder from behind and hit him several times. He fell to the ground and was hit several more times by about three men.
PC James Clarke of West Mercia Police said: “I would like to reassure the community that we are working swiftly to identify the suspects and that we are treating this as an isolated incident.
“There is no clear description of the suspects at this time but the victim does remember walking past a group of people between Unicorn Hill and the railway station who could have important information.”
Officers are appealing for information and are urging anyone with information to contact them on the non emergency 101 number or to call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
