Witness appeal after attack on McDonalds security guard in Preston

Police are appealing after an attack on a security guard at a Preston city centre fast-food restaurant.

The incident, which took place shortly before Christmas, saw the man receive minor injuries to his leg.

A man entered McDonalds in Friargate around 7pm on Friday 15 December.

He became physically and verbally aggressive towards the security guard.

When the guard tried to restrain him a second man attacked the guard by kicking him in the leg.

The offender is described as a white male, around 6′ tall. He was wearing a black hoodie with white shoulders and hood. He was also wearing dark green joggers, black gloves and black trainers.

Anyone with information is asked to call police on 101 quoting log number 1309 of 15th December.

The Friargate fast-food outlet has seen a number of problems with anti-social behaviour in recent years, with police having to step up patrols throughout the summer due to issues at the restaurant.
