Whiteness Appeal follows man
being assaulted at a pub in Litherland
MERSEYSIDE Police are appealing for witnesses
after a man was assaulted at a pub, in Litherland, on Saturday, 17 September
2016. We are told that at around 10.45pm, a call was received, by Merseyside
Police, stating that a man in his 40's had been stabbed at the Jubilee Inn, on
Hatton Hill Road. Both the Police and the North West Ambulance Service attended
the location and found a man with a slash wound to his neck. He was taken to
Hospital where his condition was assessed. The suspect is described as white, in
his 30's, of medium build, with a tattoo on the inside of his forearm. He was
wearing a dark t-shirt, grey Adidas bottoms, and dark Nike 110 trainers.
Detective Inspector Robbie Moss from Sefton CID said:- "This was a serious
assault which could so easily have resulted in life threatening injuries. We are
particularly keen to speak to anyone in and around the pub last night who saw
the incident or the men involved during the evening. This initially appears to
have been a targeted attack, within a group of friends drinking at the Jubilee
Inn. The Pub was busy around the time of the attack and I have no doubt that
some of those customers may recognise the man responsible from the description
or have information which will be vital in bringing him to justice.”
Anyone with information is asked to call Sefton CID on:- 0151 777 3834 or
Crimestoppers anonymously on:- 0800 555 111. |
