Two men have been arrested following an outbreak of violence in York.
Police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after the incident, which took place outside McDonald’s on Blake Street in the early hours yesterday (Tuesday).
A North Yorkshire Police spokesperson said: “Two males, both aged 20, have been arrested on suspicion of serious assault, public order, and assaulting a police officer.
“We believe several others, both inside and outside the restaurant, may have been assaulted during the incident.
“If you were assaulted or witnessed the incident, we urge you to come forward.”
The two men have been released on bail while investigations continue.
It’s the second violent incident on Blake Street in a matter of days.
Last Thursday a man was left with a fractured skull after an argument near McDonald’s. A description of the attacker has been circulated by police.
