Detectives are appealing for information following a serious assault in Formby last night, Saturday 7 March.
At around 11.20pm, officers were called to Three Tuns Lane to reports of an assault.
A man in his 30s was found with injuries to the head and body, and was taken to hospital for assessment. He is in a serious but stable condition. A second man in his 30s was found with minor injuries and has since been discharged from hospital.
A spokesperson for Wall of Fame was quick to distance the bar from the incident in a telephone call to Formby Bubble: "The incident which has been circulating on socials that happened on the road outside our bar yesterday has nothing to do with us.”
"It happened elsewhere within the village and unfortunately the dispute ended on the road outside our bar.”
“We had a private party on and then we stayed open as normal and will be open again today."
Enquiries are ongoing in the area, including forensics, CCTV and house-to-house.
Detective Inspector Sarah Wilkinson said: "We are still piecing together exactly what happened and why. At this early stage, I'd urge any witnesses who have not yet come forward to do so as soon as possible. We are determined to do all we can to find those responsible.”
"If you saw anything, know anything, or were passing by at the time, pass on any CCTV, dashcam, or doorbell footage as this may provide vital evidence."
