ATTACKED: Bryan Roberts
TWO MEN were arrested on Sunday on suspicion of attacking a pensioner in Cwmbran.
Retired carpenter Bryan Roberts, 65, of St Dials, was attacked with a skateboard in Wesley Street, Old Cwmbran, after walking home from the Halfway Inn with his friend at around 10pm on October 27.
The incident happened after the friends came across a group of four men verbally abusing a young woman.
A skateboard was swung at Mr Roberts’ head after he asked them to stop harassing her.
Mr Roberts was treated for a gash to his forehead, swollen eyes and bruising all over his face.
The two men, one who is 18-years-old, are both from the Cwmbran area.
They were arrested on suspicion of assault and were bailed pending further enquiries.
