Teenager allegedly assaulted outside juice bar in town

Monday 11 April 2016

Police want to hear from you if you were out in town on Saturday night when a teenager was thought to have assaulted another near the Post Office before smashing the window of a juice bar.

They believe the alleged assault took place sometime between 9 pm and 11 pm outside Barannes Juice Bar on the corner of Library Place and Broad Street.

A boy with blonde hair, wearing light-coloured trousers or tracksuit bottoms and a long-sleeved blue jacket or cardigan is thought to have attacked another boy with dark hair.

Three young girls and another boy were stood near the fountain opposite the juice bar at the time and police believe one of the girls was verbally abusive to a man in a black 4 x 4 who had pulled over to try and help.

Police think the blonde-haired boy then smashed the window of the bar before heading off down New Street towards Burrard Street with the group standing nearby.
