A MAN was attacked by a gang carrying baseball bats following a night out in Farnworth.
The 19-year-old, from Little Lever, was walking home along Worsley Road North, Walkden, near to the Vulcan pub at around 3am on Saturday when he became involved in an argument with another man.
A short time later, he was attacked by a gang of up to four men who were armed with baseball bats and planks of wood.
He was beaten unconscious and the attackers fled.
The victim was taken to the Royal Bolton Hospital but after X-rays and treatment for cuts to his head, he was released.
