A black Ford Focus then stopped in front of him, and what is described as a slim, white man in a tracksuit, around 5ft 7 tall, with a wispy beard and light hair, got out of the Focus and shouted that he wanted to fight the victim.

The man – who appeared to be in his twenties – is then reported to have approached the victim’s driver’s side window to try to grab him and then allegedly kicked the victim’s wing mirror before fleeing the scene.
