Officers have appealed for witnesses after a man suffered head injuries after an 'altercation' in Tynemouth.
Shortly after 11.20pm on February 4, police received a report that a man had sustained non serious head injuries when he fell following a suspected altercation with the occupants of a taxi outside the Salutation Inn on Front Street. The 34-year-old was taken to hospital with head and facial injuries and is continuing with his recovery.
An investigation into the incident was launched and police have already spoken with the taxi driver and a number of witnesses, as well as carrying out a review of CCTV, and a range of other enquiries. Today (Tuesday April 18), officers have issued an appeal for other witnesses, including the occupants of the taxi, or anyone who was in the area and may have dashcam footage, to come forward.
