Appeals after dad with tot is badly injured in Notting Hill assault
Met officers have released an image of a man they would like to speak to following an assault in Notting Hill.
An unknown man was walking westbound along Westbourne Grove on Saturday, October 5 at around 1pm, where he was seen on CCTV pushing a male victim to the floor.
The victim, who was walking with his three-year-old child at the time, was captured falling to the floor and hitting his head into a wall, which caused quite serious injuries, including bleeding, a fractured eye socket and heavy bruising.
The victim and his child have since been discharged from hospital, but require further treatment.
The man has been described as a black male, of medium to large build, around the age of 40.
He was last seen wearing a blue jacket, blue trousers, with a pair of white trainers and a blue baseball cap.
Enquiries are ongoing but police say it appears at this stage to be an unprovoked attack.
If you recognise this man or if you have any information which could help, please report it to police online or call 101 quoting 3239/05OCT24.
Alternatively this can be reported to the independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
