EIGHT people have been arrested following an alleged assault on a group of eastern European men in Kirkby Stephen.
The four victims had been socialising in the town on Saturday night and were walking home along High Street when police say they were attacked by a large group of youths.
All four of the men sustained minor injuries and were then followed to their home on Faraday Road where officers believe the same group of youngsters caused damage to the property’s front door.
Appleby Police are appealing for witnesses or anyone with information on the 2am incident to contact them on 0845-3300247.
