A man has suffered deep lacerations to his face and leg after he was allegedly attacked by two masked men armed with a machete in north Belfast.

The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) said the victim, aged in his 30s, was walking on North Queen Street around 20:00 GMT on Saturday when he was attacked by the men who were wearing balaclavas.

The victim reported he believed his attackers had a machete and that he was knocked unconscious before going to hospital.

A PSNI spokesperson said: “It’s shocking that an attack of this seriousness could take place in a busy area, and we know that someone must have seen the assault take place or suspicious behaviour around that time.”
