Four people arrested by detectives investigating a vicious gang attack on a man that left him with a double skull fracture have been bailed again.

Three men - aged 23, 43 and 46 - and a 43-year-old woman were arrested on suspicion of offences including violent disorder and assault causing grievous bodily harm in connection with the incident at a house in Heath Road, Lyng, near Dereham, in October.

It is alleged that a 10-strong gang wielding bats, pickaxe handles, iron bars, bricks and wood attacked the house.

The 47-year-old victim had an operation at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, to repair one of two fractures to his skull.

Inquiries are continuing and the four must return to Dereham police station next month.
