A MAN was found unconscious with head injuries near a pier.
By-passers found the 23-year-old man, from Portsmouth, laying on the pavement on the seafront between Bognor Pier and Waterloo Square, in Bognor, on Sunday, May 6, around 4am.
He was taken to St Richards Hospital, Chichester, where it was established that he had suffered head injuries including a bleed on the brain.
