POLICE are renewing an appeal for information after a racially-aggravated assault in Bridgwater.
Officers would like to identify a man after an incident on April 16 took place in Penel Orlieu.
An Avon and Somerset Police spokesperson said: “We are making a renewed appeal for information to help our investigation into a racially-aggravated assault in Bridgwater.
“One man, in his 40s, was in Penel Orlieu when he was punched and kicked by a number of men at about 10pm on Saturday 16 April. He sustained GBH-level injuries, including a fractured jaw.
“He was with a second man who was also punched.
“One of the victims reported that racially-aggravated words were used during the incident.
“Two men attended a voluntary police interview. We issued an appeal in June that helped us identify a further two people in connection with our enquiries.
“We hope the public can help us identify this man, from a new CCTV image, who is described as white, bald, and wearing a black hooded top.”
Anyone who recognises him, or witnessed the assault, is asked to call 101 and give reference number 5222095441.
