Telford police renew appeal for witnesses after youth found injured
Police in Telford have issued a fresh appeal from help from the public as they attempt to establish what happened to a 15-year-old youth who was found injured in the town earlier this month.
The young man was found semi-conscious at the rear of the Summerhouse public house on Haybridge Road in Hadley at around 4pm on Friday 8 February.
The youth was found by a woman – who has now been identified - who took him to his home address before the police were then called.
A police spokesman said:
“This is an unusual incident as the young man has no idea how he came to be on the ground and suffer his facial injuries. The last thing he remembers is making his way along the footpath that runs from Wrekin College to Leegomery and being on the phone to his mother.
“The next thing he remembers is being woken up by the woman by the Summerhouse pub. However, when he was woken his Blackberry Curve 9320 mobile phone was missing and police are very keen to find this phone as there is the possibility it has been stolen.
“Police continue to be very keen to hear from anyone who may have information about this incident and are particularly keen to hear from anyone who may be able to help establish exactly how the young man suffered his injuries.
“Anyone who believes they may have information about this incident is asked to call West Mercia Police as soon as possible on 101 or 0300 333 3000, quoting incident number 376S 080213.”
