Where's Wally?: Prat In Hat Wanted For Bottle Attack


Police are hunting this New Year’s Eve suspect after a 17 year-old boy was slashed with a broken bottle during a midnight attack in a fast-food takeaway.

The victim was with friends in Carolina Chicken, Harrow Road, Paddington on December 31, last year when the man entered with a broken glass bottle in his right hand.

In an unprovoked attack the suspect assaulted the victim, leaving him with serious chest and arm injuries. 



The assailant was backed-up by eight thugs, who joined in attacking the victim and his friends before fleeing the scene.

Earlier the same day, the wanted man is suspected being involved in a separate incident where a 23-year-old victim was injured at a shop in Westfield Shopping Centre, Shepherd’s Bush.

Following this incident, the suspect was seen on CCTV travelling on a bus towards north Westminster.



Detective Constable Jorden Brewster from Westminster Police said: “Police wish to speak with this man urgently regarding these incidents.

“He is a black man aged around eighteen wearing a very distinctive striped hat and dark clothing.”



Anyone with information on the assault or who knows the whereabouts of this man are asked to call police on 0200 7321 6717 or to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
