Two men and two women attacked by gang of 15 in popular Perth park

A police probe has been launched after a gang of around 15 males attacked four people in a popular Perth park.

Officers say the incident, which left one victim requiring surgery for a facial injury, happened at around 10pm on Saturday, March 6 near the South Inch Pavilion.

Police have pinpointed two members of the group they are looking to track down.

A Police Scotland spokesperson said: “A group of four people, two men and two women, were allegedly assaulted by members of a group of about 15 males on the South Inch.

“The large group had been congregating near the tunnels, then verbally abused the victims as they walked past, before following them and attacking them.

“One of the victims sustained serious facial injuries which required surgery, and another suffered a minor facial injury.

“Although there was a large group involved, two in particular were identified as being responsible.

“The first is described as white, 6ft 2 with straight black hair and wearing a light blue Stone Island jumper at the time. The second is described as white, about 6ft, bald with a noticeably round face, wearing a hooded top.

“If you have any information that could assist our investigation, please call 101 or speak to any police officer.

“Information can also be given anonymously through CrimeStoppers on 0800 555 111. Our reference is incident 4415 of March 6.”
