Witnesses sought to Dickson brawls

POLICE are appealing to the public to find a man who allegedly knocked people to the ground in two separate fights in Dickson this month, leaving one victim with head injuries. 

Around 1.50am on Sunday, September 9, a group of young males were sitting outside the Hostage Lounge and Tapas bar on Challis Street when they were approached by a man described as of Mediterranean appearance.

A fight broke out and three men were knocked to the ground.

A short time later in a separate incident a 47 year-old male victim was knocked to the ground by the same suspect. The victim was taken to Calvary Hospital suffering head injuries.

The suspect is described as approximately (6’3”) tall of solid athletic build who was wearing a grey T-shirt and dark coloured pants.

Police would urge anyone who may have witnessed the altercation, or the events leading up to the assault to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
