A MAN was left needing reconstructive facial surgery after a street attack.
Police are investigating the serious assault which happened in Knaresborough on the night of Saturday, March 31.
A man in his mid-30s was seriously attacked in the ginnel leading to Park Place, between the High Street and Park Row, at about 11.45pm and was only able to report the assault this week due to being in hospital since the night of the assault having facial reconstructive surgery.
Three men were believed to be in the area at the time of the assault, and it may be that they - or somebody else - may have information that could assist the police investigation.
To jog people's memory, the assault took place after the Anthony Joshua boxing match.
- If anyone has any information about the incident, please contact the Serious Crime Team at Harrogate Police Station via 101, quoting incident number 12180060707.
