Police need help IDing suspect in bar assault

Police are asking for the public’s help in identifying a suspect in connection with an assault that occurred last month in Halifax.

On August 21 at approximately 2:55 a.m., officers who were outside of the Toothy Moose bar were approached by a staff member requesting assistance in relation to an assault that had just occurred inside the bar. The 25-year-old male victim reported that he had been assaulted by a man not known to him while he was in the washroom. The victim was punched and then struck in the face and head with a bottle, and his wrist watch was stolen.

The victim wasn’t able to provide a suspect description but police are releasing pictures of the male suspect. See them at halifax.ca/police.
