KUCHING: Three persons, including a woman, were hospitalised following injuries sustained when they were attacked at a night spot in the city here yesterday.
The victims were attacked while having drinks with others when a man from another group allegedly made advances on the 26-year-old female victim.
The other two victims were said to be attacked with a bottle and sustained injuries on the head when trying to protect the woman in the incident around 1am.
It was a double blow for the woman who was not only injured following the attack but also lost her belongings.
Her family and relatives who visited her at hospital yesterday lodged a report at the nearest police station after they were told that her bag containing cash, jewellery and documents, were missing.
Police are investigating the case.
In another incident, a 29-year-old man from Kampung Pangkalan in Bau, who was assaulted at a night club at King Centre, was rushed to hospital.
A police team rushed to the scene on receiving a distress call around 1am.
The motive of the assault was unclear but there was apparently a misunderstanding between the victim and the attackers.
Meanwhile, a 21-year-old man from Sadong Jaya in Kota Samarahan suffered injuries on the head after being struck with a parang by his neighbour around midnight Saturday.
It was said that he was looking for his sister at a house not far away when he, without a word, struck the neighbour on his face.
The neighbour was said to have then used the weapon to fend off the assault.
The man was referred to the nearest clinic before being sent to Sarawak General Hospital for further treatment.
