A cyclist tried to escape a hammer-wielding gang by dumping his bike in the road and running to a nearby driveway where he was ambushed.

Two more people have now been arrested over the shocking attack in affluent Victoria Road West, Crosby, which happened close to a well-known duck pond, 12 days ago.

In total, six people have been detained including four boys, three aged 15 and one aged 16, from Blundellsands and Thornton, a 21-year-old and 51-year-old man, both also from Blundellsands.

They were quizzed on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm with intent to the 22-year-old.

Now, it has emerged that detectives have recovered "a number of hammers" from the scene.

According to the article, this area of Liverpool is "affluent". Apart from the obvious non-sequitor, what does that say about the rough areas? :-/

That there are no duck ponds there?
