A group of youths sustained minor injuries after being attacked by a gang of 20 in South Gloucestershire.

The gang demanded the five youngsters' shopping, before punching and kicking them after they refused to hand it over.

One victim sustained a split lip, another a swollen and cut eye and another had a tooth chipped.

The attack happened near Brook Way in Bradley Stoke on Friday night. Police are appealing for witnesses.
