The victim, a man in his 30s, was taken to hospital with life-changing injuries following the attack, which happened at about 1.40am on Sunday, November 30, last year.

The two officers who intervened to arrest the group were also injured and taken to hospital. 

They have both since been discharged.

A spokesman for Norfolk Constabulary said all three people arrested have had their bail extended until May 27.

Anyone with information about the incident should call police on 101 quoting reference 36/86417/25.
