Two of those arrested were taken to hospital with head injuries. Police have urged anyone who witnessed the event to come forward, and asked anyone who has CCTV, mobile phone or dashcam footage to contact officers. Anyone with information or footage can contact police on 101, quoting crime reference number 2468 of 24 November.
