Teenage boy taken to hospital after fight in Ipswich park

A teenage boy was taken to hospital after he was injured during a disagreement between two groups of people in Ipswich yesterday.

Officers are appealing for information after they were called to Cherry Lane Park at about 7.53pm to reports of a fight in progress between two groups of people.

Police said it is believed that two groups of children had had an argument the day before, August 11, which then continued yesterday, August 12, in the park before adult relatives of the two groups became involved.

A 15-year-old boy sustained a minor injury and was taken to hospital by family members.

A group of people reportedly ran away from Rushmere Road towards the back of the park.

Anyone with information – including dash-cam footage or CCTV from the area around the time – is asked to contact Suffolk Police quoting reference 37/46562/20.
