Two teenagers were left injured after they were targeted in separate attacks in Telford.

The victim was near the station’s toilet when another teenager grabbed hold of her hair and butted her in the face. The youngster was taken to the Princess Royal Hospital to be treated for her injuries.
Hours later a 14-year-old boy was punched in the face as he stood with a group of friends near to the Co-op shop in Priorslee Avenue in Priorslee.
Constable Stuart Ind, of Telford police said the victim saw a red car pull up and a man got out and punched him several times.
