Man in induced coma after violent attack outside Brisbane pub

A man is in an induced coma in hospital after being repeatedly punched in the head outside a Brisbane pub last night.

The 22-year-old remains in a critical condition in Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital after the attack outside the Narangba Valley Tavern about 11.30pm.

Police allege two men became involved in a fight inside the premise on Golden Wattle Drive which later spilled into the carpark.

A 22-year-old man is accused of striking the victim a number of times in the head before he fell to the ground.

The attacker allegedly fled the scene but was tracked down and arrested by police a few hours later.

He has been charged with grievous bodily harm and is due to appear in court tomorrow.
