I cannot comment on this incident, but my mate was slashed with a knife outside the Skyrack, probably 10 years ago now. The assailant slit his cheek from his mouth to his ear.
Apparently he was singled out in the pub, probably because he is quite a well built big lad. Out of the blue some random person started a bit of a scuffle with him. My friend's glasses were knocked off and the pair were thrown out by the bouncers. The gang that was with the assailant taunted my mate outside the pub then the nut job made his move. He attacked from behind, reached over his shoulder and BANG. The gang and the nutter ran off immediately. The Police reckoned it was some sort of gang/dare attack. They never caught the feller, and apparently didn't do anything to catch him either. Meanwhile my best mate ends up in hospital with a extremely serious facial injury, and is now permanently scared... probably in more than one way. I wasn’t there, but a friend of ours was with him and he corroborates that it was a completely unprovoked attack, which I believe.
What would motivate somebody to do such a cowardly thing? The world is a very mad and dangerous place sometimes.
