ACT Policing is seeking assistance from the public to identify the man and woman in the images which relate to an incident which occurred on Friday, February 3.
The 19-year-old victim was at McDonalds in East Row about 2.30am standing in the queue to be served. The pair pictured entered and allegedly pushed in front of the victim. After an exchange of words the victim collected his food and sat down.
A short time later the victim was approached by the man, who then punched the victim several times to the face.
The assault left the 19-year-old victim with extensive facial injuries.
The victims’ mobile phone was allegedly removed from the table by the woman in the image after he was assaulted.
The male offender is described as being of Indian Sub-Continental appearance, dark skin, approximately 188cm (6’2”) tall, with a medium build. He was wearing jeans and a light blue long sleeved shirt.
The woman is described as Caucasian in appearance, approximately 165cm (5’5”) tall with a thin build and long, blonde hair.
Anyone who may be able to assist with the investigation is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or via www.act.crimestoppers.com.au. Information can be provided anonymously.

Devils Advocate comments #14 had me LOL too.
Lets hope some nightclub pics come out to identifiy the heroic wanker and his girl of the hour of questionable virtue. And I say that as she should have had the sense to stop said b/f from being such a tool.

This is possibly the most AWESOME thing I’ve ever read on this site.

As a woman i will give you this advice, i live by it and tell everyone to do so.
If a chick can hit like a man, she can take a hit like a man – plain and simple – if she hits first, waste her.
Yeah my bad! *sigh* must be the ADD flaring up again and causing me to skim read but miss most of the content – that’s why I am a tradesman see? lol

Maybe you need ro re-re-read the story then. The victim’s a dude.
matt31221 said :
You can’t have re-read it well;
“After an exchange of words the victim collected HIS food and sat down.”
matt31221 said :
You should re-read it again, more closely.
The victim was male.
matt31221 said :
You might want to read it a 3rd time. It doesn’t mention anywhere that the victim was a girl.
matt31221 said :
Looks like you didn’t read it properly. The victim was a man. The female offender allegedly took his phone after the assault. Either way, it’s a dog act.

Re-read it again, the victim was a male.
I just re-read the story properly this time. The douchebag pushed in front of the victim and then the victim stuck up for herself. My bad, this scumbag lowlife women beater was definitely in the wrong. I am disappointed no-one stuck up for the victim and or stopped him after he assaulted the girl.
I wonder if the victim knew the attacker? If not, I have noticed that some young women these days are totally not afraid to mouth off at a total stranger. Either in road rage or on the street.
I got followed all the way from Manuka to Fyshwick while driving by a young lady about 1/4 my size and weight in a small hatchback (I accidentally cut her off but waved to apologize). She was up my arse sticking the finger up and mouthing off, she was coming up next to me with the window down and swearing and carrying on. I am not a friendly looking guy and I was amazed that she had no fear. I thought to myself she is lucky I am a pacifist and not a sociopath because most guys (actually most guys in general) my size have the ability to snuff out a lady with one punch (I hate saying that but it is true).
It does not excuse any cowardly, lowly attack on a women. Violence against women is unacceptable but one needs to watch what one says to people. If I was to go up to a steel fixer on one of my numerous building work sites and start abusing him – it is highly likely he will try to knock me the **** out. And blokes on site would think the attacker would be in the right because of my total verbal assault and rudeness – it would teach me not to disrespect someone like that again wouldn’t it?
Maybe I have got this wrong though, maybe they knew each other well but you know what I’m saying.

Assuming she has any of his identifying information (eg last name etc). Given that she’s clearly such a classy chick and it was 2:30 in the morning she may not know or remember his first name. Or where she met him.

Don’t worry, when the fuzz turn up the heat that chick will lag quicker than lager turns to piss.
I’d sue whoever set-up that CCTV install. Wrong angle, native resolution, compression and interlacing for decent facial recognition.
Lara Bingle?
It’s a shame the picture of the guy isn’t as clear at the woman, but I agree with others .. this pair definitely look like they hang out at Moose or Shooters …

I’ve always wondered if the cops do that, it’s probably not a bad idea, most of the clubs now have photographers and they’re sure to have been picked up somewhere.

So basically a South Asian man? (ie Indian, shri lanken, pakistani etc etc)? – i’ve never seen it written that way before, it kind of threw me because i can’t see his face so i couldn’t picture what he should look like.
