Detective Constable Ruth Elder, of Greenock CID, said: “We are keen to speak to a group of young men, one of whom had been on the train from Glasgow which arrived in Gourock just before 9pm.

“He appeared to be alone, however, when he alighted from the train he joined the company of other men outside Gourock Train Station, all casually dressed and in their 20s.
“A number of people came to the injured man’s aid and we have managed to speak to them but we would like to talk to anyone who was on the train or who may have seen an incident take place outside the train station on Shore Street.
“Officers are checking local CCTV from and would ask that anyone with information that may assist their investigation to contact police via 101 quoting incident number 1141 of Sunday 11 December 2022. Alternatively, details can be given anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111."
