Police are hunting two men in connection with a vicious attack on a couple in NW6. The victims, a 43-year-old man and his 34-year-old girlfriend, were walking along Fairfax Road at around 1:15am on Sunday, June 10, when they spotted a man urinating on the street.
Attack Turns Violent as Suspects Join From Nearby Car
When the couple challenged the man, three others—two males and one female—jumped out of a parked car. The males launched a savage assault on the pair. The man sustained serious injuries including a brain bleed, broken jaw, eye damage, and severe bruising. The woman was thrown to the ground, had hair pulled out, and suffered bruising.
Detective Constable Angela Greaves said: “I am keen to identify and apprehend those responsible for this needlessly vicious attack on a couple making their way home after a night out.”
The female suspect was not involved in the assault.
