Police have issued a fresh CCTV appeal after a woman was left with a broken jaw in an attack near a bar in Salford.
The shocking incident happened on Liverpool Road in Eccles, near Wangies Bar, at around 1.20am on February 26. A woman - aged in her 30s - was punched in the face, leaving her with a broken jaw.
Following the attack, police released pictures of a man they wanted to speak to. Today (October 10), more than seven months on from the incident, a new CCTV clip has been released by detectives.
It appears to show the same man who was pictured in the first appeal. Detectives are urging anyone who recognises him to come forward.
Alongside the new clip released on social media this morning, an officer wrote: "#APPEAL | Detectives in our #Swinton CID are continuing to investigate the assault of a woman in #Eccles earlier this year & want to speak to this man seen on the video.
"If you recognise him then do contact us via LiveChat or by calling 101 quoting 229 of 26/02/2022."
In a statement issued earlier this year, a spokesperson for GMP Eccles, Cadishead, Barton and Irlam wrote: "Do you recognise this male? We want to speak to him following an assault on Liverpool Road in Eccles, near to Wangies Bar, in February at around 1.20am.
"A woman in her 30s was punched in her face on February 26, suffering a broken jaw as a result. A number of lines of enquiry have been followed up since the incident and officers are now urging anyone who recognises the male or has any information to get in touch."
