Two people have been arrested after a man was assaulted in the doorway of a Chinese restaurant in Nottinghamshire.

Police were called to Outram Street, Sutton-in-Ashfield, just before 23:00 BST on Saturday after a report of a disturbance between two groups.

The man was taken to hospital after the attack, police said.

Officers had issued an appeal in a bid to trace people seen leaving the scene, with the detained pair - a man, 20, and 17-year-old girl - held on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent.

Nottinghamshire Police said officers were still working to trace a third suspect.

Anyone with any information has been asked to contact the force.
