---

Help police find three men who attacked man outside his home

Ealing Borough Police would like to appeal for help from the general public in identifying three male suspects who police believe are responsible for a vicious assault, which occurred in Horsenden Lane South, Greenford, UB6 at around 2300 hrs on Saturday 16th October 2004.

A man stated that he was at his home watching the television when he heard loud noises outside. After about 10 minutes, he went outside, to ask the men to keep the noise down and move on from the area. They then attacked him, causing fractured ribs and bruising to the face and upper body. Some members of the public were passing, noticed the altercation and phoned for an ambulance.

 

The suspects left upon arrival of the members of the public, leaving the victim unconscious. He spent five days in hospital and is now thankfully making a full recovery from his injuries. The victim lives close to Perivale Tube Station and it is thought the suspects may have got on the tube that evening.

Ealing Police would ask anyone with any information about this incident or who may recognise the suspects from their E-fits to contact Detective Sergeant Mark Bishop or Detective Constable Tony Stroud in CID Unit at Southall Police Station on telephone number 020-8246-1105/42 or alternatively Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Ealing Police Spokesperson stated, �This was a terrifying vicious and unprovoked attack on an innocent member of the community. It is important we locate these callous men as they may pose a significant danger to others. Ealing borough police are treating this incident very seriously and are anxious to trace the offenders. We would ask anyone with information, no matter how insignificant it may appear, to contact us.�
