A man was punched to the ground and left with injuries to his face in an attack in Nottingham. Police have said the victim was walking along Milton Street, close to the junction with Forman Street, in the city centre, when he was approached by two men at around 1.45am on December 20 last year.
The pair reportedly started talking to the victim normally at first, but then one became aggressive and punched him to the ground. The victim suffered injuries to his eye and nose after the incident, according to Nottinghamshire Police in an appeal issued on Wednesday (March 8).
The suspect has been described by the force as a black male, aged between 18 to 25 and of a slim build. The victim gave the same description for the other man and both were wearing black hoodies.
