Have you seen this man?
Lancashire Police are appealing for the public’s help to identify a man they want to speak to in connection with an assault investigation in Leyland.
Officers said the incident was reported to have taken place between 6pm and 6.30pm on Sunday, May 3, at The Leyland Lion Wetherspoons on Hough Lane. Police allege that an elderly man was assaulted twice with a glass before drinks were poured over him during the incident.
The victim suffered cuts to his face as well as a significant injury to his ear, which required medical treatment. Investigators have now released an appeal asking whether anyone recognises the man pictured, as they believe he may be able to assist with their enquiries.
Anyone with information relating to the incident or the identity of the man is being urged to contact Lancashire Police.
