A man suffered serious head injuries after being assaulted at a newly opened bar in Holmfirth.

The attack happened inside the Ten Fourteen bar and restaurant on Dunford Road in the early hours of this morning.

The victim, a 21-year-old male, was taken to hospital but his injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.

The bar only opened its doors on Thursday this week.

Detectives are now appealing for witnesses to come forward.

Police were called to the scene at 2am this morning by the Yorkshire Ambulance Service.
