A MAN was in a critical condition with severe head injuries after he was beaten unconscious.
Police believe the 33-year-old was assaulted before he was left unconscious in Stockton High Street, shortly before 1am yesterday.
The man was taken to the James Cook University Hospital, in Middlesbrough, and remained in a critical condition last night.
Police are trying to trace a woman who spoke to officers at the area where the man was found, outside the Scope shop.
The woman gave some information to officers, but left before she gave any more details.
Anyone with information has been asked to call police on (01642) 302226.
