Devon and Cornwall Police are appealing for witnesses after a man, 22, was assaulted in an unprovoked attack in Plymouth on January 29.

The incident happened at Derry’s Cross at around 1.30am where a man was approached in the street while walking alone. A male offender punched the victim in the face

The victim was left with a broken jaw which required an operation to insert metal plates.

The offender is described as white, approximately 6ft tall, between 20-22 years-old and is of a muscly and stocky build with a goatee beard.

He was wearing a grey coloured tee-shirt and blue denim jeans.

A Plymouth city councillor who performed a Nazi-like salute has been told he must undergo diversity training.

Labour's Jonny Morris made the gesture during a a full council meeting last month. He apologised immediately afterwards.

He has also been suspended for three months, were he won't be able to sit on committees and will have to undergo diversity training.

The Chief Whip informed the Labour group he had applied the sanction against Cllr Morris along with a requirement to undertake a course of diversity training and to offer a personal apology to members of the SACRE – Standing Committee on Religious Education in Plymouth.
