A Scottish man is in jail, charged with assault after he attacked someone outside the railway station in Oban, Scottland.

The incident took place in Queens Park Place on Saturday, June 27th. The circumstances of the assault haven't been reported.

The local paper, Oban Times, wrote the man wasn't arrested immediately at the scene but was "conveyed home while further enquiries were carried out" and charged later.

There is no word on the wellbeing of the victim, but it's said the weapons, two live seagulls, appeared to somehow be uninjured after they were used to beat the victim.
