hi kate j
wish his family that we hope he makes a full recovery and they catch the people who did this.
we need to remember birkenhead is what we make it it should be a place where people can feel safe to go out for a drink etc

It was a 34 year old man. He went outside Yate's with another man to finish an arguement. Punches were thrown and one hit the floor, smacking his head on the pavement. (This is how his sister and family has heard it). He is in a coma. There is no "good" news about his health, yet.

If anyone knows/was a witness to this, or knows anything else, please please, go to the police. They have the other man in custody.

Although what has happened is heartbreaking for my friend, lets not tar everyone in Birkenhead with the same brush. Birkenhead, like every other "drinking" area is going down hill.

A 30-YEAR-OLD man was left fighting for his life after being attacked in a Birkenhead bar.

The unnamed victim was said to be in a critical condition following the "disturbance" at the Wine Lodge in Charing Cross at around 9.10pm last night.

Merseyside Police believe the trouble may have started inside and spilled out into the street.

Detectives said a major incident room had been set up and that they were still hunting whoever attacked the man, who was said to be local.

A police spokesman said: "A young man has been left fighting for his life. Anyone in the Wine Lodge, or passing by, who may have information, no matter how small they think it is, is urged to contact us as it may assist our investigation.

"It was a busy Friday night and someone will have seen what happened. We are treating this extremely seriously and ask anyone who can to help us bring to justice the person responsible for this."

Anyone with information should contact Wirral CID on 0151 777 2265 or Crimestopppers on 0800 555 111.

this lad is off my estate
carnt belive its him
such a great lad

Quite ironic that this appeared above a thread titled "Birkenhead - Paradise Lost". Too true.

So, the police can't even get Kenny's age right? He is 34, and, as his sister is one of my closest friends, I guess I should know his age too.

As far as his sister is concerned, they have the other guy in custody.

Maybe this is their way of looking for the full story, as Kenny is certainly unable to give it.

He is still fighting. Let's hope he gets well.

Typical mis-reporting by the Wirral News, not the police.

Poor kenny

Thinking of him and his family

Estate will be in uproar

4PM UPDATE: TWO men have now been arrested in connection with the assault in Birkenhead.

A 32-year-old and 36-year-old, both from the area, have been arrested on suspicious of causing grievous bodily harm and have been taken to a police station in Merseyside for questioning.

Detectives are continuing their appeal for people with information to come forward.

Officers are keen to speak to anyone who was inside The Wine Lodge, passing by outside, or in The Tap next door at the time of the incident

Head stomping/kicking should be attempted murder not gbh grrrrr.

Difficult to prove "attempted murder", due to having to proove "intent to kill". Virtually imposssible. He sais he did not intend to kill, especially when no one is actualy DEAD, then no one can proove otherwise.

GBH, the evidence is right before your eyes. Conviction more or less garunteed.

Was his name Kenny Wylde?

Am I missing something here, where does it say there was head-stamping and the like going on? The new report just states he smacked his head on the ground?
