A man kicked a stranger’s head like a football after they’d gotten into a fight over sharing a spliff. Omar Suleiman, 26, was sitting alone on a bench, drinking a can of cider and smoking in Alexandra Park when he was approached by the man.
They spoke briefly before the man asked to have some of the cannabis cigarette Suleiman was smoking. He refused and an argument quickly developed into a scrap with the victim attacking him first.
In response, Suleiman, of Hulme, launched a brutal attack on him, repeatedly punching him to the face.
