A TEENAGER was bottled by three men who lured him out of a fast food restaurant.
The 19-year-old victim was attacked by three men outside Burger King in North Street, Brighton at about 3.45am on Sunday.
They targeted him after they were involved in an earlier verbal altercation, a Sussex Police spokeswoman said.
The victim suffered cuts to his neck for which he received hospital treatment.
DC Aaron Halsey, of Sussex Police, said: “This is a particularly violent assault during which the victim was attacked with a broken bottle and received a serious injury to his neck.
“Police attended quickly, but unfortunately the suspects had run off.”
Witnesses or anyone with information should contact Sussex Police on 101 quoting serial 203 of September 3.
