Appeal After Man Suffers Serious Injuries At Brighton Pier

A man has suffered serious injuries following an incident at Brighton's Palace Pier last Thursday night (Aug 11).

At around 9.25pm, officers received notification from the ambulance service that a man had had a cardiac arrest just east of the pier.

It's thought he had fallen from railings down onto the promenade below.

Paramedics managed to stabilise the man before taking him to hospital, where he remained in a serious but not life-threatening condition.

Witnesses told police he had been involved in an altercation with two men prior to falling.

They were identified at the scene and arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm. They have since been released under investigation.

Anyone with relevant information or footage can report online, or call 101, quoting serial 1397 of 11/08.
