At approximately 7.45pm on Thursday 21 October 2021 the victim – a local man aged in his 30s – was walking with his young child in a pushchair and his dog on Princess Road at the junction of Silver Birch Close when a man approached him from behind.
It is reported that the man overtook the victim, before punching him twice to the face and walking away in the direction of Branksome.
The victim sustained injuries to his eye and mouth.
