The 17-year-old boy was later arrested on suspicion of Section 18 assault and has since been released under investigation as police enquiries continue.

Images sent to The Star today show what remains of the police cordon, with bits of police tape still attached to the fences, and a large blood stain still on the floor outside The Walkabout.

The area was opened again shortly after the incident, with the remaining police tape and blood stain the only evidence of the altercation last night.
