Man's jaw broken in three places after attack at a Bali bar

A coward punch has left a Perth man in a Bali hospital with a shattered jaw.

Aden Field's friends say he was hit inside a Seminyak bar in the early hours of Sunday morning.

They claim it came out of nowhere and that Aden, a promising young footballer, did nothing to provoke it.

He'd flown to Bali as a last minute surprise for his fiancée and forgot to book travel insurance, which is making life even more difficult.

His medical bill is already sitting at $25,000 and doctors say he will have to stay in hospital for at least another week.

His friends have set up a GoFundMe page to try and raise enough money to pay for medical costs and to fly Aden back to Perth.
