Police investigating a vicious assault in Bradford, which left the victim with "life-changing" injuries, yesterday arrested three people in connection with the attack.

Two men, aged 45 and 38, were held on suspicion of assault and perverting the course of justice. A 16-year-old youth was re-arrested on suspicion of the same offences.

All three are in custody.

The 40-year-old victim was attacked in Hollybank Road, Great Horton, shortly after midnight on Monday, September 1, as he walked home. He was taken to hospital with serious head injuries and remains there in a stable condition.

Detective Chief Inspector Steve Snow, of Protective Services Crime, said: "We are still keen to hear from anyone with any information about this incident, in particular a man who was possibly bald or had very short hair, who was seen walking towards Hollingwood Lane at the time."

Anyone with information should contact police on 101, or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555111.
