Neighbours in Mapperley have voiced their shock after a man was injured in a seemingly random attack in the community. The victim, who wished to remain anonymous, told Nottinghamshire Live that he was thrown to the ground and stomped on as he walked home from the shops on the evening of Thursday, May 12.
He said the assault, which is being investigated by police, happened around Chestnut Grove. People living in the area expressed their surprise at the incident.
Ella Sheteul, a 21-year-old charity worker, said she found the story "really shocking”, but added: “I don’t feel massively affected to be completely honest with you. These things can happen anywhere, but I guess it is surprising it happened here.”
