A young boy had to be hospitalised after being viciously assaulted after a teenage disco in Co Donegal.

The teenager received a number of kicks in the head after being set upon by a number of other boys after the disco on Friday on the Port Road in Letterkenny.

The boy has been released from hospital but is understood to be very shaken after his ordeal.
