OFFICERS are appealing for witnesses to come forward following an assault at Barnsley bus station.
It is reported that at about 12.40pm last Friday, a 17-year-old boy from Barnsley was waiting at a bus stand in the transport interchange on Midland Street when two men are alleged to have assaulted him.
Three men approached the victim, two of whom are alleged to have hit the teenager before walking off.
A police spokeswoman said: "Did you see either of the men described at the time of the incident? If you can help, call 101 quoting incident number 630 of October 16."
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
