A man suffered a head injury during a brawl at a Swindon pub yesterday evening.

Police raced to The Dockle Farmhouse in Bridge End Road at around 7.20pm following reports of a large disorder – involving up to 20 people – breaking out there.

An 18-year-old male was assaulted by another male who is believed to be known to him. During the assault, he suffered an injury to his head and attended the Great Western Hospital.
