Coronation Street's Chesney Brown is in for troubled times ahead as it's emerged he becomes the target of a group of violent thugs in an upcoming storyline.

According to The Sun, the gang members break in to rob the Bistro, but Chesney (Sam Aston) gets in their way and one stabs him in the neck with a broken bottle.

The youngster, left bleeding on the floor of the restaurant, slowly begins to lose consciousness while his horrified friends Adam Barlow, Daniel Osbourne and a screaming Michelle Connor desperately try to save him.

But the scenes will apparently leave viewers guessing over whether Chesney manages to survive the brutal assault.

Aston has appeared on the ITV soap ever since 2003.

Corrie certainly hasn't shied away from shocking storylines of late.

Just last week, we discovered the truth about the mystery culprit who shoved Ken Barlow down the stairs back in March.

The soap has also caused some controversy with Bethany Platt's grooming storyline and next week, the story takes its most disturbing twist yet as Bethany is drugged and told to sleep with three different men.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV.
