Friday 22 March 2019

A man was punched repeatedly by an attacker believed to be in his 50s in a car park brawl, Police have said in an appeal for more information.

The assault took place on Sunday 17 March around 18:15 to 18:25 at the rear of the Milbrook-based branch of Morrisons in St. Lawrence.

Police described an “altercation” as taking place between the two men, leading to one man being “punched a couple of times”.

A woman then tried to break up the fight, telling the attacker to stop before driving off in a white Renault hatchback with him.

Members of the Force are now looking to find out more about what happened, and provided this description of those involved:

The victim was a white man, aged 55, approx. 5’10 tall, of medium build with a bald head. 

The other man is described as mixed-race, around 50 years of age, approx. 6ft tall, of stocky build with dark and grey hair. 

The woman is described as white, aged around 45-55, approx. 5’9, of slim build, with straight shoulder length blonde hair.
