At around 8.45pm on the Saturday evening at the Esso KP Garage on Victoria
Avenue, Manchester the victim was carrying out painting maintenance on the
disabled ramp to the shop when a white man, described as around 19/20
years-old, 5’10” wearing a baseball cap under a hood and dark clothing, who
was driving a white/silver VW Polo or Golf, jumped over the barrier and
walked onto the wet paint before physically assaulting the victim who
questioned his actions.
He was subsequently punched in the face unconscious resulting in a broken
hip and jaw.
Police Constable Martin Mcguffie said, “This is a serious assault where
after conducting initial enquiries we are keen to speak to the public who
may have seen this incident happen.
“We are particularly keen to speak to someone who assisted the victim after
the assault before emergency services arrived to assist, who we believe
goes by the name of Lynn – if this is you, please get in touch so we can
speak to you about the incident.”
GMP are now keen to speak to anyone who was in the area at the time or
witnessed what happened. Officers are specifically interested to speak to a
woman called ‘Lynn’ who assisted the victim at the scene before paramedics
arrived.
Any details should be passed onto GMP by calling 101 quoting 3111 of
