Pub Glassing: Do You Know This Thug?

Police are hunting this late night thug, who hurled a glass at a pub customer – inflicting a nasty gash to the rear of the victim's head.

The suspect, who was riding a racer-style bike, approached two friends, aged 28 and 29, outside the Telegraph Pub, Telegraph Street, Moorgate at 11pm on June 14.

He flew into a rage after the men ignored his requests to use their phones and grabbed the 29 year-old around the throat and pushed him.

The assailant then picked up the glass and hurled it at the 28 year-old, causing the wound, and cycled off.

The suspect is described as a black man of medium build wearing a black peaked cap, a blue denim jacket with a light coloured shirt underneath and wore dark trousers.

Anyone with information should call the City of London Police on 020 7601 2222, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
