A 14-year-old girl has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting a 12-year-old girl in a skate park in Pembroke Dock.

Another teenage girl, aged 13, has also been interviewed under caution and released under investigation, after police officers responded to the reported assault at the skate park in Bush Street, at approximately 5pm on January 21.

A spokesperson for Dyfed-Powys Police said: “The victim suffered injuries which resulted in hospital treatment. She has since been discharged.

“Officers are aware that a video of the incident has been circulating on social media and would like to reassure the community that action is being taken.”

Police Sergeant Haydon Mathias said: “This is a particularly violent assault which took place in a public place in broad daylight. It is saddening that it was recorded by bystanders and circulated online.

“It has caused the victim and her family significant distress and upset. Incidents such as these have no place in society and we have taken appropriate actions against those responsible in this incident.”
