Police are hunting five men who attacked a reveller at a late night bar after he accidentally stood on one of their feet.

The group approached the 39-year-old man in the early hours of Sunday, May 27, at Mint Bar on Streatham High Road.

They were seen pushing him to the floor and then making a swift exit, leaving the man unconscious.

An ambulance crew took the victim to a south London hospital where he was treated for what police described as “non life-changing, no life-threatening head injuries”.

The suspects are described as black men, wearing t-shirts and long-sleeved shirts. One suspect had a snake tattoo on his forearm and another wore a baseball cap.

Anyone with any information should contact Detective Constable Rob Way at Lambeth CID on 020 8721 3569, e-mail at Rob.J.Way@met.police.uk or speak to Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
