POLICE are launching a fresh appeal for witnesses after a reveller was left with a fractured jaw at a town nightclub.

A 21-year-old Warrington man was assaulted, at approximately 2.15am, on December 8, at the World nightclub, Orchard Street, where he was enjoying an evening with work colleagues.

A man approached the victim, near to the club's exit, and struck him in the face as they walked out of the nightclub.

The victim did not see the offender and has no idea why he should be assaulted. Police want to hear from anyone who was in the nightclub who witnessed the incident or who saw the offender earlier in the evening.

Detectives also want to trace a man who helped the victim after he was hurt as he may be able to provide the police with valuable information.

Anyone who saw the incident is asked to call Con Steven Deehan on 652222.
