The incident happened around 12-30 a.m. on December 18th outside Posh Nightclub, in Ormerod Street, when a man approached a queue of people and punched the 32-year-old victim to the face in an unprovoked assault before running away.

The man sustained a fractured jaw which required an operation and police are continuing to investigate the attack.
