A PENSIONER was left with a broken nose and cuts and bruises after he was attacked by a gang of teenage boys.

At least four boys punched and kicked the man, after approaching him from behind as he walked near the New Life Church in Speldhurst Road, Southborough, Tunbridge Wells.

The attack happened at around 11pm on Friday, October 2.

The man had a small amount of cash taken from him and required hospital treatment for his injuries the following day when it was confirmed that his nose was broken and he had cuts and bruises across his body and face.
