A TEENAGER has been left with a fractured skull and a brain bleed after a brutal assault at a Gold Coast train station.

The 15-year-old boy had met with another teenager at Coomera Train Station on Sunday about 1.30pm for what was believed to have been an organised fight when he was set upon by between eight to 10 people.

It’s understood the teen was knocked to the ground and kicked and stomped on by the group.

Police attended, but no complaint was made.

Several days later on December 3, the boy’s mother rang police to make a complaint after he was taken to hospital, where his horrific injuries were discovered.

The Bulletin understands he had a fractured skull and a brain bleed.

Officers investigating the assault are reviewing CCTV footage from the station.

This latest bashing follows a horror year of assaults around train stations and shopping centres on the Gold Coast, where teens have been bashed and robbed.

On several occasions teens were set upon by a group, severely beating them, before stealing their brand name clothes off their backs, along with their shoes, phones, bags and hats.

Several of the brutal encounters were filmed and posted to social media including an alleged assault on a homeless man while he waited for his bus outside of Helensvale Westfield.

A young man and his teenage brother were assaulted in a suspected gay bashing at Coomera Westfield.

The run of assaults forced the hand of the Gold Coast police into running Operation Romeo Luminous, a high visibility policing operation targeting areas where teens are known to congregate, like shopping centres and train stations.

The ongoing operation is expected to ramp up during the holiday season, as police try to manage the increased number of teens flocking to shopping centres.
