He had cuts and bruises but did not require hopsital treatment.
“We are asking these three ‘good samaritans’ or any other witnesses to come forward to help our inquiry.”

My partner got attacked here 5 Months ago by 3 People outside the enterance to the Open Market on the Level side. He was kicked and punched and had his head slammed against the concreat and then boiling hot coffee poured over him!! We are still paying for his treatment now.
They need MORE police in this area as this happens alot and there is no one around.
This area is known as having alot of crime so why is nothing getting done to protect innocent people???
The police dropped the case within less than a week.
