Man Knocked Unconscious In Unprovoked Attack

The 60-year-old victim can be seen walking alone in Kings Walk at around 4.15am on 10 January.

A man approaches him and, without warning, punches him in the head.

The footage then shows the victim falling to the ground and lying motionless as his attacker runs off.

The victim required eight staples for a head wound and serious facial injuries after the attack.

A spokeswoman for Gloucestershire Police said: "The offender is described as white, in his 20s, wearing a blue hoodie, light trousers and trainers with a white sole. He is carrying a black coat or jacket.

"There was a second man seen running off with the offender - he has short dark hair and was wearing a grey/green shirt, dark trousers and shoes with a white sole.

"Gloucestershire Police have CCTV footage which has captured the assault in full. They would like to hear from anyone who witnessed the assault or was in the area at the time.

"They would also like to hear from anyone who recognises the offender from the CCTV footage."
