PC John Booth of Preston Police said: “This was a nasty, apparently unprovoked assault and we are keen to trace the person responsible.

“We have made several enquiries so far and have now taken the step of releasing CCTV images of a man we are looking to speak to in connection with the assault.

“If anyone recognises the man in the images or has any other information they think could assist then I would ask them to come forward and contact police on 101.”

Anyone with any information can contact police by calling 101 and quoting log number LC-20131103-0245. Alternatively, information can be passed to independent charity Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or on-line at Crimestoppers-uk.org.
