Man 38 remains in hospital following serious assault in West Lothian

Armadale: So, there was this serious incident on Saturday evening. A 38-year-old guy got attacked outside a place on Lower Bathville. He’s now in the Royal Infirmary of Edinburgh and is in pretty bad shape.

The police are looking into it and say two men dressed in black and wearing balaclavas were spotted around the time of the attack. They hopped into a white car and took off west along Lower Bathville.

Detective Sergeant Keith Sinclair is urging anyone who might know something to step up. If you’ve got any CCTV, doorbell, or dash-cam footage, they’d love to see it.

If you have any info, you can call Police Scotland at 101 and mention incident 2706 from that Saturday. You can also reach out to Crimestoppers anonymously at 0800 555 111.

It’s a tough situation, and the police really need the community’s help to figure out what happened. Let’s hope they get to the bottom of it soon.
