It allegedly involved three males in an altercation outside the restaurant, during which two of the males are reported to have pulled out knives.

The third male reportedly received a head injury after being slashed with a knife, followed by the two other males allegedly leaving the area and reportedly being seen attempting to intimidate passers-by.

The same night, a 20-year-old male from Nuneaton was arrested on suspicion of possession of an offensive weapon and for causing violent disorder following this incident.
