## Summary

Two men were seriously injured in Sheffield after being attacked with metal bars following a road collision, in what police believe was the second linked disturbance in the Page Hall area within 24 hours. The incident began when a silver Volkswagen Passat collided with a pedestrian on Owler Lane, after which occupants of the car are alleged to have got out and set upon a man with metal bars as a large crowd gathered. South Yorkshire Police dispersed the crowd, closed the road and launched an investigation into the attack.

The assault took place at around 4.30pm on 4 August 2026, with both injured men taken to hospital for treatment. It followed an earlier disturbance on Willoughby Street the previous night, in which a large group armed with wooden bats left a woman with minor injuries; a 30-year-old man was arrested in connection with that incident. Police have not confirmed a motive linking the two events but are treating them as related while enquiries continue.
