Police are investigating a street attack on an MP who tried to tackle youths misbehaving in his seaside constituency.
Bournemouth East MP Tobias Ellwood was repeatedly punched in the head after he tried to stop the gang throwing a ball around in Boscombe High Street, Dorset.
They twice threw the ball at the former Army officer's face when he asked them to move on and got angry when he took photographs of them on his mobile phone.
Witnesses then saw the gang of four take a number of violent swings at his head.
SourceWelcome to the real world Mr. Tobias... It is a shame that more MPs don't venture out and sample living in the real world.
