An 11-year-old boy claims he was punched in the face by a man more than twice his age after visiting a friend's house.
Kayla Birks, from the Wirral, said her son Milo was visiting a friend's house on Saturday November 19, when he was attacked by a 26-year-old man who was also at the property. The assault left Milo with marks across his face, and has left the schoolboy shaken up.
Kayla told the ECHO: "He had gone round to his friend's house in Moreton on Saturday, and for absolutely no reason some 26-year-old man has just punched him in the face.
