A TEENAGER has been arrested in connection with a kebab van fight which left a man hospitalised with a head injury.

The 17-year-old was arrested on suspicion of GBH and affray two days after a large brawl broke out at Boscombe Down Recreation Club around 10pm on Saturday, May 4.

He was taken to Gablecross custody for questioning but has since been released on conditional bail.

During the scuffle, which took place by a kebab van, a man suffered injuries to his head and shoulder serious enough to warrant a hospital visit.

Although one suspect has been arrested, Wiltshire Police's investigation continues and the area will be patrolled.
