TWO MEN are in serious condition in hospital after they were attacked in separate incidents outside local nightclubs on Monday night.

Police reported that a Miller Heights resident was standing in front of a nightclub on Carmichael Road around 8pm when he became involved in an argument with another man. The suspect struck the victim in his head with a concrete block, knocking him unconscious.

Emergency Medical Services personnel responded and took the victim to the hospital, where he is listed in serious condition.

In the second incident, around 8:10pm police say a 23-year-old male resident of Culmersville was sitting in front of a nightclub in Culmersville, when he was attacked by two men.

The men dragged the suspect to the rear of the building where a struggle followed. One of the suspects pulled out a handgun and shot the victim. The assailants left the scene in a red Nissan Teana.

The victim was taken to hospital where he is listed in serious, but stable condition.
