Exeter police are currently appealing to the general public for any information regarding an unprovoked assault in the city centre.
The police require the help of the public in identifying three unknown men who attacked an 18-year-old on Sunday 12 April. The identity of the victim has not been revealed.
At around 2:30am on Sunday morning, the teenager was waiting at a bus stop in South Street, Exeter. It was here where three unidentified males approached him from behind. The victim’s hoodie was then removed, and he was punched in the face. His attackers then threw the hoodie back before running from the scene.
The incident caused bruising to the victim’s face, resulting in swelling and a black eye. It seems that no further injuries were sustained.
CCTV has provided the police with four detailed pictures of the attackers. These pictures show them walking down both South Street and Fore Street during the night and can be found at the bottom of this page.
The three suspected perpetrators all appear to be young males with short hair. One of the attackers was wearing a distinctive chequered shirt on the night of 12 April.
If anyone recognises any of the three males, or remembers seeing them walking down Fore Street or South Street in the early hours of 12 April, police are asking that you contact PC 2013 Westlake, Exeter CID through the 101 non-emergency number, quoting the crime reference DE/13/3222.
