A 20-year-old man received a broken nose and facial injuries
after he was set upon by four or five drunken party-goers in
Palmerston on Saturday night, Constable Stefan Witehira said
yesterday.
More sober party-goers tried to restrain those who were
attacking the victim.
A 17-year-old Palmerston male has been arrested and charged
with assault with intent to injure. Further arrests are
likely.
