BNP member attacked with hammer
Violence broke out as 30 people surrounded a BNP vehicle outside the Ellesmere Pub in St Helens Road in Leigh on Friday evening.
Tony Ward, 48, was hit with a hammer and later treated in hospital.

A 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm, Greater Manchester Police said.
Officers arrived at the pub to discover the BNP’s trailer had been overturned, said a police spokesman.
A traffic diversion was put in place on St Helen’s Road, while the trailer was removed and the road was closed. It has since reopened.
One witness told BBC News: “They had hammers and they smacked the vehicle to pieces, smashed all the windows and tore off the bumper, completely decimated it.
“I was shocked at what I saw.”
