    Police in Huddersfield are appealing for information after a 19-year-old girl was attacked at Greenhead Park.

    The incident happened last Thursday (7 April) between 6:30 and 6:45pm where the teenager was approached by a male suspect who attacked her hitting her in the face in a hammering motion with a silver object (possibly a knife) several times.
