Detectives have released images of two men they wish to identify after a robbery in east London.

A 22-year-old man was attacked from behind by three males as he walked along St Georges Road, Newham.

The suspects took £20 from the victim before knocking him to the floor and then both beating him up at around 10.15pm on 29 Otober.

He was taken to hospital for treatment to head and facial injuries and a broken leg. He continues to receive treatment for his injuries.

Investigators have released CCTV images of two of the men they need to speak with in connection with the assault.

Detective Constable Tiffany Africa, of the Met’s North East Command, said: “Our investigation into this assault remains ongoing, but we need your help to identify those people responsible.

“Do you recognise anyone in these images? Were you in the area at the time or the attack, and did you film it on your phone.

“We need to locate the people behind this assault. Do the right thing and call us.”
