Police are appealing for witnesses following an assault in South Belfast.
It happened in the early hours of this morning in the the area of Benburb Street / Connaught Street.
Police received a report just after 00:20 that a 15 year old male had been walking in the vicinity of the Benburb Street / Connaught Street area in South Belfast, when he was assaulted by a number of people and sustained a number of cuts and bruises.
Chief Inspector Gavin Kirkpatrick said, “I am appealing for anyone who witnessed the assault or anyone with information that can assist with our investigation to contact detectives at Musgrave Police Station on 101 quoting reference number 11 of 2/11/18".
Alternatively, information can also be provided to the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 which is 100% anonymous and gives people the power to speak up and stop crime.
