A
chicken takeaway customer smashed another man over the head with a
chair when he was bumped into then returned to the back door with a
knife.
Detectives
from Newham Borough in east London are investigating and have issued
this CCTV image of their Bengali suspect.
On
Wednesday, July 27, last year police were called at around 9.00pm to
Papa’s Chicken on High Street North in Newham.
Police
attended and found a 25-year-old man being treated by London
Ambulance Service.
He
had suffered cuts to his head and eye lids, and a bruised jaw after
being hit over the head with a chair.
CCTV
from within the shop caught the moment when the victim paid for some
food and turned to leave.
As
he turned, he brushed shoulders with the suspect who started to shout
and argue with him.
The
suspect then attacked the victim and despite trying to protect
himself, he was hit and kicked several times in the head.
The
suspect ran off along Milton Avenue.
He
later returned to the rear of the shop armed with a knife and left
upon police arrival.
The
suspect is described as a slim, muscular man, aged in his mid
-thirties and 5ft 10ins tall.
He
was wearing blue trousers and a blue hooded top.
Police
are keen to hear from anyone who may recognise the man or who
witnessed the assault.
Anyone
with any information is asked to contact police via 101 or
Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
