​Two waiters from an Indian restaurant in Bath needed hospital treatment after being attacked by a group of men.

The staff, who worked at Curry Nights in Augusta Place, were set upon by the gang in Royal Victoria Park at around midnight on Tuesday.

It followed an incident where a stone had been thrown at the window of the restaurant and the waiters had decided to follow the suspected culprits.

They were then attacked on the path leading to the children’s play area in the park, before their assailants made off towards the city centre.

The victims, one aged 46 and the 20, were taken to the Royal United Hospital for treatment but were not badly hurt.

Police are appealing for any witnesses to contact them on 0845 4567000 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.
