A THREE-year-old boy has been seriously injured in a suspected acid attack, West Mercia Police have said.

Cops released images of three men after the toddler was injured in a suspected acid attack in Home Bargains in Worcester yesterday afternoon.

Police said the boy was taken to hospital where he is being treated for serious burns to his arm and face.

Superintendent Mark Travis said: "The incident will shock the community. We're carrying out an enquiries to identify those responsible."

The incident occurred at around 2.15pm in Home Bargains on Shrub Hill Retail Park, Tallow Hill, Worcester.

Chief Superintendent Mark Travis added: "At this time we are treating this as a deliberate attack on a three-year-old boy."

He continued: "The incident will rightly shock the local community and I would like to reassure local people that we are carrying out a thorough investigation to identify those responsible.

"At this time, the motive for the attack is unclear. Officers are working hard to establish exactly what happened and what the substance involved was.

"The three men in the photo may have information vital to our investigation. I am sure someone will recognise them and I would urge anyone with information to contact us as a matter of urgency."

A 39-year-old man from Wolverhampton has been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm and remains in police custody.

scum. They should be killed.

That is disgusting. That poor wee child. I hope they get caught and punished severely. Acid attacks are evil and horrific in general but on a child? I feel sick.

This act is sickening, depraved and inhuman and if I had a choice of wishes between winning the lottery jackpot or having these ****ing cowardly scum caught, imprisoned for NATURAL life, and TORTURED for every day of that time, then I would forego the Lottery win.

how many more acts like his do we have to witness before the bleeding-hearts admit that liberalism has eroded the British Justice system?

Reinstall DISCIPLINE in our prisons, bring back CORPORAL Punishment, Whole-of-life sentences, AND Capital Punishment for certain categories of crime because short sentences in 5* hotels are NO deterrent at all.

And **** that criminal's loophole-ridden 'Human Rights Act' - it is TIME that the VICTIM'S 'Human Rights' came first and time that the British Justice System PROTECTED the innocent citizens of this country instead of the perpetrators.

Godspeed that poor little mite's full recovery.

It’s really difficult to get your head around the fact that anyone is capable of doing such a thing to an innocent young child. We are not just talking one disturbed individual but apparently three individuals which is even more worrying as it suggests a common thinking full of hate and completely lacking in compassion and humanity. Such people are living amongst us free to practice their hate and hurt our children. It’s about time somone actually did something about this.

That poor little boy - I hope they can do a lot to help him and give him a decent future.

[Headie]

Horrible. The fact that the attack doesn't even appear to have a motive, let alone the victim being an innocent child, makes this absolutely appalling.

Romanion. Knew it.

Absolutely despicable act of cowardice to target a child. Sounds like some kind of revenge attack or something as police are saying it is targeted. Were it my child they had better hope the police caught them before I did.

Poor baby.....an innocent life ruined by grown men is sickening

[Beso]

Jail obviously doesnt bother people...kirks right..

[smudgie]

Horrific.
How anybody could attack a child in anyway is beyond me, but this is truly evil.
