Man arrested over Bradford cab firm iron bar attack

    A man has been arrested over a vicious attack involving an iron bar at a cab firm’s office in Bradford.

    On 6 August Abbas Yasin, 25, was attacked whilst working on the switchboard at Ace Budget Cars on Thornton Road.

    He had to undergo surgery to remove fragments of bone from his brain and may have been left with potential long-term injuries.

    A 22-year-old male has since been arrested on suspicion of wounding with intent but has been released pending further investigation.

    Enquiries are ongoing.
