Police are investigating a scuffle at a popular fast food restaurant in Newcastle which has left a security guard nursing a head injury.
Paramedics and police were called to the King Street McDonalds at about 3 o'clock on Sunday morning to reports a fight had broken out in the restaurant car park.
The company says the security guard tried to stop two individuals who were carrying alcohol from entering the store and the injured man was advised to go to hospital for observation purposes only.
The guard in his 20's was taken to the John Hunter in a stable condition.
