POLICE are naming two men they would like to speak to in relation to a racially motivated attack in Hackney.
Officers would like to speak to Connor Donoghue and Jack Marks after a 34-year-old man was assaulted by three men and hit in the face with a metal object.
The attack occurred shortly after the victim left a venue on Brick Lane at approximately 03:30hrs on 25 July.
Due to the language used by the suspects, the incident is being treated as a racially motivated hate crime.
Detective Constable Caelen Matthewson-Davies from the Central East Command said: “This was an unnecessary and needless use of force on an innocent man and we need the public’s help.
“If you know these men, or have any information that may help with our investigation, please do the right thing and get in touch.”
Anyone who can help is asked to call police on 101 or tweet @MetCC quoting CAD 4370/26Aug.

I’ll put mine up when people put there’s up sue, and I know for a fact the boy who was attacked was selling ballons outside that club , not such a good person at all, and was nothing at all to do with the colour of ones skin, this is 2021 the only people who have chips on there shoulders are those out there protesting and talking about shit that happened when no one in this life was even there , move on , and get facts , no racist attack at all , was probably self defence,these white boys out for a night out in , shoreditch come on, who really started it 🤪

Noisy I wouldn’t know I went there. Was you? You said probably!! Only people that know what happened is the two people they are looking for and the other person that was hurt. There are always two sides to a story and the truth in the middle. If it was racist or wasn’t racist, self defence or not. They should hand themselves in and get the matter sorted or they will make it worse for themselves. But my actual point was in my first message was if it was your family member you would want people to grass so your family get the justice if it was deserved.
