SEVEN people were arrested after a man was hospitalised in a suspected baseball bat attack.

Police were called to reports of an altercation in Dunnock Way, Blackbird Leys, at about 11.30pm on Saturday.

A man in his 20s was taken to Oxford?s John Radcliffe Hospital with injuries to his upper body, which police said they believed were caused by a baseball bat.

Seven people were arrested at the scene on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm and were still in custody as the Oxford Mail went to press.

They are three 18-year-old men, three 19-year-old men and a 52-year-old woman, all from Oxford.

A Dunnock Way resident said her mum called the police after they heard shouting outside.

She said: ?I looked out and there was a man standing in the road and shouting, then he took his top off and started punching a car.

?He looked very drunk. The other boys were just standing around. Then the police arrived and arrested everybody.?

Det Insp John Turner said: ?We believe that the victim may have been attacked with a baseball bat during the incident.

?I would appeal to anyone who may have witnessed the altercation, or who has information about the incident to contact the police immediately.?

Contact Mr Turner by calling 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
