A Skelton man who was viciously attacked on Christmas Day remains in a critical condition while and enquiries are ongoing.
The 49-year-old man - named locally and on social media as Mark Tinkler - was the victim of an alleged serious assault in Skelton.
Police confirmed several members of the public tried to intervene and help the man, who suffered significant head injuries during the alleged attack.
A spokesman for Cleveland Police today said the victim remains in a critical but stable condition at Middlesbrough’s James Cook University Hospital.
Police attended Hylton Avenue at around 6.10am on December 25 after neighbours called the emergency services.
Three men - aged 29, 30 and 51 - were arrested on suspicion of assault and have been bailed pending further inquiries.
A neighbour, who asked not to be named, told The Gazette that the scene was “horrific” with “blood everywhere.”
A spokesperson for Cleveland Police said: “The alleged attack happened on the street and officers know a number of witnesses were present.
“Police are grateful for information they have already received from several people, but believe there are others who have not yet spoken to police and are urging these people to come forward.”
Anyone with information should call 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
