A young woman 'needed surgery for a broken ankle and leg' after being attacked by a group of thugs during a camping trip.
The 21-year-old from Dumbarton and her partner, 23, were targeted by three men believed to be Glaswegian while camping at Glen Etive in the Highlands on July 10. The group challenged her boyfriend to a fight but when he refused, grabbed her and pushed her into the burn, causing her to break her ankle and shin.
The woman was rushed to Belford Hospital in Fort William before being transferred to the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley for surgery on her leg and foot. Her boyfriend was also allegedly hit over the head with a glass bottle which left him needing stitches at the Belford Hospital, reports the Scottish Daily Express.
