A MAN is being treated for serious head injuries following a suspected assault outside the Rose and Crown Hotel in Wisbech last night.

The man, who has not yet been identified, is currently in hospital and in a stable condition.

Police officers were flagged down by members of the public just after midnight last night.

It is believed the man may have been assaulted outside the hotel between 11.30pm and midnight.

Detective Chief Inspector Martin Brunning said: "At this stage of the investigation the circumstances surrounding this incident are not clear and we are making enquires to determine how this man sustained these injuries.

"There were a number of people in the hotel late last night and I would ask that they get in touch with us as they may have vital information.

"In particular we are keen to hear from anyone who was in the Nene Quay area close to the hotel, which is where this man was found."
