A parish priest who was badly beaten on the grounds of his own church has slammed a police force for not investigating the brutal crime that left his t-shirt covered in blood.
Father Colin Mason, of Sacred Heart Church in Westbury-on-Trym in Bristol, shared a photograph of his bloodied shirt and bruised face after the assault at 11pm on August 20.
His eye socket was fractured in the attack, which happened after he asked a party in the church hall to shut down because it was going on too late.
Father Mason blasted Avon and Somerset Police for 'doing nothing' to investigate the case, despite being initially helpful.
The force has said it is reviewing its service.
