Two men were attacked during a large disorder which broke out at a pub in Coventry. Police were called to Flannellys on Holyhead Road in the early hours of Saturday, March 18.

Officers were called to the busy venue following a disorder in which two men were attacked. One suffered a minor injury to the head during the brawl.

Two men, believed to be suspects, fled the scene shortly after the disorder. An investigation has been launched with witnesses urged to contact West Midlands Police.

Flannellys shared a statement on Facebook in which they said that a 'brilliant day was ruined by someone seeking to cause harm.' It read: “Another St. Patrick's Day over! A brilliant day and night had by all!

“Unfortunately, the end of a brilliant day was ruined by someone seeking to cause harm. Fortunately thanks to our amazing door staff, aided by Sean, we were able to keep all our customers safe, which is always our number one priority. We would like to say a massive thank you to our brilliant, hard-working bar staff, our door staff, our entertainment DJ Rory and Frankie, who kept you all singing and dancing throughout the day.”

A spokesman for West Midlands Police said: “We were called to Holyhead Road, Coventry in the early hours of March 18 after a disorder in which two men were attacked. One suffered a minor injury to their head before the two male attackers then made off.

“Enquiries are ongoing to identify the two men. Anyone with any information can contact us via Live Chat on our website or on 101 quoting crime reference number 20/266343/33.”
