A shocking attack has rocked the Fife football scene after an 18-year-old Raith Rovers fan was viciously beaten by a gang in Dunfermline following the tense derby against Dunfermline Athletic.
Horrific Footage Shows Youth Kicked While on Ground
Disturbing video circulating online shows the young supporter lying helplessly as the attackers repeatedly kick him. The victim was rushed to hospital, with police launching an immediate investigation into the violent assault.
