Pair to face court over Gold Coast bashing

Posted November 27, 2008 09:50:00

Two men are due to face court today charged with grievous bodily harm over an incident on the Gold Coast.

Police allege the pair assaulted a 48-year-old man at Labrador yesterday.

The man was treated for injuries to his face, head and arm.

Police are also hunting for a man who robbed a security guard at Burleigh Heads yesterday afternoon.

The man was armed with a syringe - he approached the guard as he got out of his car at a shopping centre just after 5:00pm AEST.

He stole cash and personal items.
