: Preston Soup Run-Homeless man beaten nr Roper Hall

While we were doing soup run last week we came across stories of people being attacked by young thugs on our streets. Only last week an elderly man between 58 & 63 years old; who sleeps on Preston's streets was attacked from behind by two young thugs for money or anything else they could get.


The man was beaten around the face and head leaving him needing stitches and badly bruised. He told us he was hit with a club of some sort.

The man is now afraid to be on the streets in case of being attacked again. Something needs to be done for this man and the other people still sleeping on our streets. Its not safe.
