Philippine Workers Attacked in Avonmouth | Bristol News

Description

Three Filipino ship workers in Avonmouth, near Bristol, were brutally attacked on July 31 — one remains in critical condition, another was hospitalized, and the third walked away unharmed. Police are treating it as a hate crime after racist language was used during the assault. Two suspects have been charged: 45-year-old Kurtis Ranklin faces grievous bodily harm with intent for the critical victim, while a 17-year-old (unnamed due to age) is charged with wounding with intent for the discharged victim. Both are set to appear in court next Monday. Two other arrested individuals were released on bail as the investigation continues. Support groups like SARI are rallying behind the victims, who are far from home and facing an incredibly tough time.
