Image released could help solve nine-month-old attack case

A fresh attempt to solve the case of an attack in Camden nine months ago has prompted police to release an image.

Officers have released an image of a man they would like to speak with in connection with an assault which took place in Milbrook Place, outside Mornington Crescent Tube Station, on March 10 this year.

A 39-year-old man suffered a black eye and swelling to his nose and face after being attacked by a suspect described as a white man, aged approximately 20-25 years, wearing a black blazer, white low cut top with a black character on it, black skinny jeans and black shoes. He had short blonde hair and is of a slim build.

The suspect punched the victim several times in the face and even when the victim had collapsed to the floor, the suspect continued his attack.

Police were called to a man lying on the floor in Camden High Street.

The incident happened at approximately 3.40am, however, despite extensive police enquiries, officers have now released an image in the hope that someone will come forward to assist.

T/DC Natalie Gilder, from Camden Police, said: "This appears to be a completely unprovoked attack and although in the early hours, there could be someone out there who may have seen what happened or who may recognise the person in the image."

Anyone with information is asked to call Camden Police on 101 or anonymously through Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
