A man had to be treated in hospital for head injuries after he was the victim of a serious assault in south Bristol.
Police have issued an appeal for information and the images of three younger men they want to identify and question in relation to the attack.
The incident happened last Thursday evening, August 13, on Dean Lane in Bedminster.
The victim was a 50-year-old man who suffered head injuries and had to be taken to hospital for treatment.
Police described the assault as 'serious', and eight days on have identified the images of three men they want to question in relation to the attack.
One of the images shows a man in a grey t-shirt and white or light-coloured baseball cap holding a black bag, standing outside the Ibrox Hotel in Dean Lane.
The second image shows a man with a black and grey hoody also standing in the same area of Dean Lane.
And the third image shows a man with a black t-shirt on and tattoos on his arms and hand. He is pictured indoors at an unknown location, but what looks like it could be a hospital setting, with a face mask under his chin.
"If you know who these men are, or can help with this investigation in any way, please call 101 and give the call handler the reference number 5220182997," said a police spokesperson.
"Alternatively if you want to provide information anonymously, you can call the independent charity Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. They never ask your name or trace your call," he added.
