Teen charged over abduction of Margaret River man

A 17-year-old male has been charged over the alleged abduction and serious assault of a man in Margaret River last month.

The victim, 20, was attacked by four men in Ned Higgins Lane before being bundled into the boot of his own car and driven to the outskirts of town on Saturday, July 6.

He was brutally assaulted with metal poles at the bush location before being left with his vehicle without any keys.

The teenager is facing a string of charges and is due to appear in the Fremantle Children's Court tomorrow.

Police say they are continuing to identify the other men involved.
