A man has been seriously assaulted 'with a weapon' after a late night rammy between two gangs in a Scots town.
Cops rushed to the scene at Trinity Place in Elgin, Moray at around 11.40pm last night after reports of an 'altercation between two groups'.
It is understood that both groups had been to the local Mcdonald's before the scrap.
One of the groups involved were travelling in a grey Audi A3 car. The other group were using a silver Mercedes.
