Greater Manchester Police officers have appealed for witnesses after a security guard was assaulted at the Morrisons superstore in Chadderton.
On Thursday, October 19, 2023 at around 3.04pm, three unknown male offenders wearing balaclavas on off-road motorcycles visited the Morrisons petrol station in Chadderton.
When the attendant refused service and security arrived on the forecourt, the men drove off towards the exit on their motorbikes.
They then drove back in with an offender attempting to kick the security officer.
The victim managed to get out of the way of the kick.
However, a second offender drove his motorcycle directly into the victim, knocking them to the ground and causing multiple injuries.
Officers are now appealing for anyone who witnessed the incident to come forward and assist their investigation.
Information can be shared via 101 or 0161 856 8891 quoting log 2109 of 19/10/23.
