Police are appealing for information after a 14-year-old boy was assaulted in an unprovoked attack in Morecambe.

At around 9.40pm on Saturday 28th September, the teenager was cycling along the pavement on Out Moss Lane when another teenager punched him, knocking him off his bike.

The offender, who was in a group of four, is described as white, around 17-18 years old and was wearing a black hooded top.

PC Faye Tinker said: “This was a nasty, unprovoked assault which resulted in the boy being knocked unconscious when he fell from his bike and banged his head.

“As such he doesn’t really remember too much about what happened and we are appealing for anybody with any information at all about this incident to contact police.”

Anybody with any information can contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or on-line at Crimestoppers-uk.org.

No personal details are taken, information is not traced or recorded and you will not go to court.
