Nightclub Glassing: Queue Jumpers Hunted By Police

Police are hunting three nightclub yobs after another reveller - who complained about queue-jumping at the bar - was left needing ten facial stitches when glassed.

Detectives from Merton Borough are investigating the attack and have issued these CCTV images of three men they wish to speak to in connection with the incident.

On Saturday, March 19 police were called at around 1.45am to a report of an assault at The Watershed Nightclub, The Broadway, Wimbledon.

Three men walked into the nightclub and later approached a 25-year-old man at the bar, who was ordering some drinks.

Following an exchange of words about queue jumping, one of the suspects hit the victim in the face with a glass, causing cuts to his cheek, ear and forehead.

The two other suspects then punched and kicked him.

London Ambulance Service attended and took the victim to a south London hospital.

He was later discharged with ten stitches.

The suspects are described as:

Suspect 1 : A tall, black man of medium build with short black hair and a short beard, aged in his twenties.

He was wearing a black t-shirt with two buttons on the front, black trousers and black shoes.

He left wearing a hooded jacket with a fur hood.

He had tattoos over both his wrists.

Suspect 2 is described as a clean shaven white man of medium build in his twenties, wearing light coloured trousers and t-shirt, black belt and black shoes.

Suspect 3 is described as a black man of medium build with short black hair and a short beard, aged in his twenties.

He was seen wearing a zipped jacket over a light coloured t-shirt, jeans and trainers.

He had a tattoo on the left side of his neck.

Police are keen to hear from anyone who may recognise the three men shown on CCTV or who witnessed the incident.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact police on 101 quoting reference number 211768 (suspect 1), 211769 (suspect 2) or 211770 (suspect 3).
