An 18-year-old girl who was seriously injured after being attacked outside the Victoria Centre in Nottingham is still in intensive care two weeks after the assault.
Police say the victim was punched and kicked several times on Lower Parliament Street at about 8pm on Tuesday, February 20.
She then got on a bus but later fell ill and was taken to the Queen’s Medical Centre, where she remains in a serious condition in intensive care.
A 17-year-old girl later arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning grievous bodily harm has since been released on conditional bail.
A Nottinghamshire Police spokesperson said: “We treat reports of this type of crime extremely seriously and we will investigate thoroughly to bring offenders to justice.
“Our investigation into this offence is ongoing. Extensive enquiries have already been completed, with numerous witnesses located and statements obtained, but we’re urging anyone with any information that could help us with our enquiries to get in touch with us as soon as possible.
“We have arrested a 17-year-old girl in connection with the incident who has subsequently been bailed with conditions while our enquiries continue.”
