Three individuals have been arrested after a man was assaulted and found unconscious in Nottingham city centre early this morning.

The attack occurred on Clumber Street around 1.15 am, where the victim was reportedly punched and kicked by a group, leaving him with a broken nose before he was admitted to hospital.

Prompt police action led to the identification and arrest of suspects shortly thereafter. An 18-year-old man and two youths, aged 13 and 16, are currently in custody, facing charges of grievous bodily harm with intent.

Detective Inspector Ian Smith from Nottinghamshire Police addressed the incident:

"This was a nasty assault requiring hospital treatment, but the injuries are thankfully less severe than initially feared. We've since made three arrests."

He continued, "Violence like this is intolerable and unacceptable, and we urge anyone who witnessed the incident or has relevant footage to come forward."

Witnesses or individuals with information can contact Nottinghamshire Police directly at 101, quoting incident 38 of 12th September 2026, or reach Crimestoppers anonymously at 0800 555 111.
