Police seeking assistance to identify offender

Wednesday, 01 July 2009

ACT Policing is seeking public assistance to identify a male offender after an assault earlier this year that left one young man with a broken nose and fractured eye socket and a second with a cut lip.

The incident occurred about 5.35pm on Saturday February 14, the weekend of the Multicultural Festival, near the water fountain at the Canberra Centre entrance on Ainslie Avenue in Civic.

The offender is described as Asian in appearance, in his late teens with a thin, fit build, olive complexion and about 160-170cm in height (5’3”-5’7”).

He was wearing a white T-shirt and had black hair with bleached blonde tips through it.

There were two other young males with the offender at the time of the incident and police are interested in speaking with either of these men.

Anyone who may be able to identify either of these males is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or via the website at www.act.crimestoppers.com.au
