Police are urging witnesses to come forward following an altercation between teens in a Gloucester fast food restaurant yesterday (Tuesday 6 September).
The incident happened shortly after 5.45pm in McDonald’s, on Westgate Street, between two groups of teenagers who were known to each other.
Two teenagers were already in the city centre restaurant when they were approached by a group of three youths from outside.
Both groups appeared to have weapons and all of them ran from the scene before police arrived.
Officers are now looking to piece together what has happened and would like to speak to anyone in McDonald’s at the time.
