Police in the nation’s capital are appealing for help to identify a scumbag who coward-punched a man in a unprovoked attack in the early hours of January 1st.
ACT Police have released shocking footage of the incident, which clearly shows the assailant levelling a disgusting heavy strike to the victim’s head, rendering him instantly unconscious and sending him tumbling to the ground. The victim was transported to hospital and required emergency surgery.
The coward in question is still on the loose, and thus police have turned to the public for assistance in identifying him.
A warning, the footage is sickening, and not for the faint of heart.
