Two men got out of a vehicle at the junction on The Quayside, Witton Street in Northwich and assaulted a 42-year-old man.

The man is in North Staffordshire hospital with serious injuries and is currently in a critical but stable condition.

The assault occurred at approximately 2am on Saturday 26 March.

A 23-year-old man and a 24-year-old man both from Northwich were arrested on suspicion of assault. They have since been released on conditional bail.
