A young man was taken to hospital with "significant" facial injuries after a violent gang attack in East Lothian.

The 22-year-old victim was assaulted by a group of around 15 people in North Berwick's High Street at around 10.10pm on Saturday.

Following the attack, he was taken to Edinburgh Royal Infirmary for treatment.

Police are now appealing for witnesses to get in touch to help identify all those involved.

Detective constable James Welsh said: "This has been quite a large disturbance that left the victim with a number of painful injuries to his face.

"North Berwick High Street was likely to have still had a number of people coming and going from the area at this time of the evening and anyone who saw what happened and has yet to contact police should do so immediately.

"In addition, anyone who can provide any information that can help us identify those responsible is also urged to get in touch."
