Police have described an attack in Nottingham as brutal and cowardly.

In March, a man was punched unconscious in Stoney Street while trying to help a woman on a night out.

The victim ended up with a fractured skull.

Unprovoked and Cowardly

The assault took place outside Bamboo Bar at 2.47am on 1 March 2015.

Detective Inspector Mike Allen has told Capital:

'This was an unprovoked and cowardly attack. So often we see one punch assaults like this end in tragedy.

'In this case the victim had walked over to help a young woman and was instead punched to the floor suffering a serious injury.

'We would urge anyone who knows anything about this incident to call us on 101.'
