A 17-YEAR-OLD was assaulted on the skate park in Halesworth on Monday evening.

The teenager was at the park, in Saxons Way, when three cars, one red, one yellow and one black, and a blue moped pulled up at around 5.40pm.

A group of men walked towards him and one grabbed him and tried to punch him, but the 17-year-old managed to get away.

The man is as described as white with a tanned complexion, in his late teens to early 20s, about 6ft tall, with blond/ brown hair that was about one-and-a half inches long all over and who was wearing a white T-shirt, light coloured trousers and Nike ankle boots.

Anyone who saw the incident or who has any information about the man involved is asked to call PC 1475 Plummer at Lowestoft on 101.
