Man attacked at Welshpool Livestock Market

A man was attacked by two men whilst delivering animals to Welshpool Livestock Market on Monday during the early hours.

The shocking incident was reported to have happened between 4am-6am, and it could have been a lot worse had other people at the market not intervened to stop the assault.
