Teen attacked in Newburgh
The 16 year-old suffered facial injuries
A 16-year-old boy has been beaten up in Newburgh. The teenager sustained facial injuries during the incident which occurred just after midnight on Friday April 7, 2017 into Saturday April 8 at the bus stop at School Road.
Police particularly want to speak to a group of males who took the last bus from Newburgh heading north around 12.10am.
Investigating Officer Constable Scott Dowie said: "We are aware that there was a beach party in Newburgh that evening where there would have been a large number of youths looking to get the last bus home. We need to speak to anyone who got that bus or was in the vicinity around the time the assault took place.
"The North East is a safe place to live with a good level of community spirit. As such anti-social behaviour of any kind will not be tolerated and patrols will continue to tackle the issue."
