A man was punched to the ground and kicked to the face in a horrific attack on his first night out in two years.
The man - who has autism and epilepsy- was attacked by Joshua Standing and Toran Grant on May 29, 2021, after he intervened in a fight. Leeds Crown Court heard on Tuesday the man had gone out for drinks with his rugby team in Farsley and had been talking to a woman who was ejected from the pub. He followed her, and was followed by a team mate before the fight broke out.
Prosecutor Alisha Kaye told the court: "An argument happened between her and another woman and a fight broke out."
