Around 10 masked youths are said to have run into a Cardiff barber shop where a customer was attacked. Isaac Omoyibo, who owns Fresh Look Salon in Canton, said flowerpots, a massage machine and a metal stool were used to repeatedly strike a teenager who had just had a haircut.
The incident took place at around 5.15pm on Friday in the shop in Cowbridge Road East. CCTV from a neighbouring business caught a group of youngsters — who wore their hoods up with balaclavas or masks over their faces — walking towards Fresh Look Salon just before the attack.
Speaking at the scene minutes after the incident, Mr Omoyibo told WalesOnline that a boy aged around 17 was targeted while sitting on a sofa at the back of the shop. "He was waiting for a lift, then this happened," said the 38-year-old. "These 10 people with masks on came in and I knew something was not right.
