A man from Bradley Stoke is fighting for his life in hospital following an attack which saw two youths arrested in Pye Croft.
The attack, according to the Bristol Evening Post, took place on Saturday night near the junction with Westfield Way.
The road was sealed off following the attack and residents were told they could not park their cars there during the investigation.
A spokesperson for Avon and Somerset Police said: “A 29-year-old man is currently in a serious condition in Frenchay Hospital following an assault in Pye Croft, Bradley Stoke, at around 11pm on Saturday.
“Two 15-year-olds have been arrested and are helping police with their inquiries.”

I wonder if they are local lads!?
The trend seems to be going towards people going into another area, causing mayhem then hightailing it back to their own area, thereby escaping prosecution etc.
People will brand this area as a ‘no go’ area when this unfortunate incident could have happened in any area of the city.
Hope the chap is OK.

Let the idiot element breed unchecked and this is what you get.
Nasty little creatures who know all about their rights and very little about anything else.
So long as the law and the benefit system combine to support this vermine they will carry on.
Time for private policing and bno questions?
I’ve nothing to fear – but the thugs would.
Then again I expect a liberally wooly response from some quarter probably from the do-good section who have not been victims yet…….

a lack of positive male role models is the cause of this kind of behaviour. society is to blame, don’t get angry with the kids, it is the adults, we quite happily allow our fellow countrymen to watch extreme violence and anti social behaviour on tv, with swearing and wannabe gangsters glamorized. What the hell do we expect.

it is not just a lack of positive male role models,more a case of lack of parenting skills!i am a mother of 2 boys and i take full responsibilty for their actions,its a shame that more parents dont!if,on the rare occasions,they cause a prob to someone,i will personally make sure that they see the person face to face and apologise for their actions at the very least!all children misbehave sometimes but how it is handled makes all the difference long-term.
