Huntingdon Life Sciences managing director Mr Brian Cass has been beaten with baseball bats by masked attackers, British police said today.
Mr Cass (53) needed stitches to a head injury following the attack, which occurred yesterday night as he arrived home.
Huntingdon tests products on animals and Mr Cass has been targeted by animal rights activists in the past.
Police said they have no doubt the "callous and cowardly" attack was the work of animal rights activists.
