Police Hunting Key Witness After St John’s Road Attack
Detectives have released a CCTV image of a man they want to speak with. He is believed to have witnessed the savage assault near the Job Centre in St John’s Road, Wembley, just before 9pm on 17 December 2021.
Officers stress this man is not a suspect but a vital eye-witness. “Your help could take a dangerous criminal off London’s streets,” said Detective Chief Inspector Jim Eastwood. “We want justice for Petru-Sorin’s grieving family.”
