CCTV appeal following assault of security guard in Liverpool City Centre

We are circulating a CCTV still of a man who may have information following the assault of a security guard in Liverpool City Centre in October.

At around 3.50am on Friday 12 October, the victim was working at McDonalds in Clayton Square when he had cause to ask a male customer to leave the restaurant. The man was ushered outside at which point he punched the victim to the face, causing bleeding.

CCTV and witness enquiries have been ongoing and detectives would like to speak to the man pictured.

Detective Inspector Lisa Ryan said: "We are keen to speak to this man as soon as possible so if you recognise him, please come forward.

"Security guards work hard to ensure that we can all enjoy a safe night out in Liverpool City Centre and elsewhere. To assault anyone, and in this case someone there to protect others, is completely unacceptable and we are determined to identify the person responsible and put them before the courts."

Anyone who recognises this man or has any information is asked to contact @MerPolCC, call 101 with reference 18200215240 or @CrimestoppersUK on 0800 555 111.
