Reward offered to catch journalist's attacker

The Newcastle Journal is offering a £5,000 reward to help catch a man who attacked three women, including one of its journalists. Sub-editor Christine Harle suffered multiple fractures when she was attacked in a city centre underground car park. She is in hospital and faces a number of operations because of the severity of her injuries. Hours earlier two women escaped uninjured in separate incidents in Gosforth. Police believe the same man was responsible and have issued CCTV footage of a man they want to interview. (Via Newcastle Journal)
