Three admit attack

THREE local youths have admitted to a Juvenile Panel their part in the attack which left Willem Haymaker in need of facial surgery.

The three, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared before the panel at Hastings last Friday, accused of affray in Egerton Park.

Willem, a 17-year-old Bexhill College student, suffered a broken nose and an eye injury when he was beaten and kicked by a gang of youths on October 27.

The panel imposed nine-month supervision orders on two 15-year-old youths.

The third youth, who is 16, was bailed until January 4 for reports.
