Student injured in Clifton attack as he came back from night out

A Nottingham student was left with facial injuries after he was assaulted as he came back from a night out. The 19-year-old was attacked on Farnborough Road in Clifton after making his way home from a night out in Nottingham city centre at around 2.45am on November 22.

The victim had taken the bus from the city centre to Clifton. Police said the man believes he was assaulted shortly after he left the bus near the roundabout with Farnborough Road.

He can only recall being on the ground and surrounded by some people who told him he had just been attacked. He attended Queen’s Medical Centre for treatment of facial injuries.

PC Curtis Widdowson, who is investigating the incident, said: “The victim has a Snapchat video of himself at 2.41am on that day. At this point he had already got off the bus and appears to be near the roundabout with Farnborough Road in Clifton.

“He had no facial injuries at this point, so we are assuming that the incident took place at around 2.45am. The victim is struggling to remember any details.

“But he does remember waking up and someone telling him that he had been assaulted. However, the details of this person are unknown.

“This person may be able to provide crucial information so that we can look at identifying a suspect. We are therefore calling for that person to come forward as well as any witnesses.

“Were you around the area of the A453 Remembrance Way near the junction with Farnborough Road in Clifton on November 22. Did you witness an assault? Any information would really help us with our investigation. You can call 101, quoting incident number 0066 of November 25, 2022.”
