Three young men are being hunted for a suspected race attack on a white teenager – struck over the head with a bottle – inside an East London budget supermarket.
The suspects – aged around twenty and of Pakistani/Bangladeshi origin – launched their vicious late-night assault in Costcutter, East India Dock Road, Poplar on January 22.
Police have released this image from the store’s CCTV captured at 1:40am identifying the trio.
The 17 year-old victim needed two stitches after being struck over the head with a glass bottle and receiving a wound to his hand.
Detective Constable Scott Pounder of the Tower Hamlets Violent Crime Unit, said: “These are clearly men who are fully prepared to use violence and we would urge anyone with information to please contact us as soon as possible.”
Anyone with information is asked to call police on 020 7275 4546, or if you wish to remain anonymous, call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
