Kirklees CID Reacts
“We welcome the sentencing of these three men for what was a disgraceful display of violence in our town centre,” said Detective Inspector Oliver Coates.
“One victim was attacked brutally even as he lay on the floor. It’s lucky he wasn’t hurt even worse given the ferocity of the assault.”
“The defendants were quickly identified and arrested. I hope their convictions offer some comfort to the victims.”
