Nottinghamshire dad 'absolutely livid' after son hospitalised in homophobic attack

A dad has said he is "absolutely livid" after his son was left with life-threatening injuries in a homophobic attack. Morgan Fevre, 22, originally from Retford, was left with multiple injuries including a bleed on the brain, three broken teeth and a broken nose in four places.

The attack happened in the early hours of Sunday, April 10 in Manchester, where Morgan now lives, and police has confirmed that it is being investigated as a homophobically aggravated assault. Morgan's dad, Paul Fevre, 53, rushed from Retford to Salford Royal Hospital when he received a call from Morgan telling him he had just had life-saving surgery, Lincolnshire Live reports.

Paul said: "We got to the hospital and Morgan was in a bad state emotionally. He said the last thing he can remember is a guy asking him for a cigarette, he said he didn't have any and the guy said why are you wearing a girl's coat?"
