Police have launched an investigation into an alleged assault on a man in his 50s in Newport late yesterday afternoon (Tuesday).
Officers were deployed to the Town Centre at 16:34 to reports that a male had been assaulted in Church Litten Park.
The victim was located with minor injuries to his head on nearby Medina Avenue.
A cordon was erected for a time but was soon removed when the severity of the situation was confirmed.
Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary are continuing to probe the incident.
No arrests have been made.





























































































Get the bloody CCTV up running and manned. Also Bobby’s on the beat …. Simple
That’ll be the day
And remove far left judge’s…
Remove far left judge’s what?!
Judges – you’ve changed the context with the grammatical error
did you vote for the Austerity party?
I’m sure there are some lazy council workers that could operate the CCTV
Totally agree…..about time all these thugs and psychopaths were rounded up and given strong justice !
Welcome to the Isle of scumbags….
we are not all scumbag’s thankyou most of us are decent working people
Gotta wonder who those 10 people were who identify as scumbags…
Guys family should find the scumbags and have a good old fashioned linchin plenty of trees in church litten to throw a rope over a branch it’s the only way to get justice in this damn country police are a bloody useless waist of space hence no arrests the justice system is a joke find em and linch em
Considering even the United States stopped lynching over 40 years ago, I would have hoped that people here wouldn’t be as horrific as to suggest something that barbaric but here we are…
Not casting aspersions but his smiling, ruddied complexion appeared to suggest he was absolutely bladdered when i drove past him last night.
All that will be done is have more breeding hutches for the worlds and mainlands low life to fill with clones to ensure the next generation grows up worse than the sperm donner and womb from whence it came.
The Council and Governments policies have ruined this Island and England, NOT for a while, but FOREVER.
CCTV ,police patrol hahaha,the council won’t like using our council tax for that,chavs twats ,druggies prossies playground that is
Pssssst being a chav or a prozzie isn’t illegal
Unfortunate that nights are getting dark very early at present, wonder if the assault was drug or drink related? The Police who no doubt will ask for another massive percentage of Council Tax money need to start doing more night patrols, Church Litten is getting a worse reputation than it deserves, especially as it is also reportedly meant to be a massive grave yard. Should the assault turn out to be a teenager then perhaps the Government really do need to think about bring back National Service especially with people like Putin and God help us if Trump gets in, along with Elon Musk – all three must be suffering from overdose of botox – which does affect the brain.
