A man with learning difficulties has died after being savagely attacked by a teenage gang on a housing estate in Sunderland.
Northumbria police have launched a murder investigation after Brent Martin died of his injuries in Sunderland Royal Hospital.
Detectives are questioning two teenagers about the attack on the 23-year-old man in the Town End Farm area, late on Thursday night.
Officers are also hoping to track down a number of youths thought to have been involved in the vicious attack.
Police said Mr Martin, a local man, was subjected to a "savage and prolonged attack" by a gang of five youths.
