Police have released security camera images of six males believed to have carried out an early morning assault on two people in the Madison Avenue and Bloor Street West area, last month.
Spokesperson Allyson Douglas-Cook told Global News Radio 640 Toronto the incident happened around 2:15 a.m. on Sunday, Sept. 23, blocks away from a pub in which two groups of men were asked to leave following an altercation involving a spilled drink.
“Both groups were expelled from the pub, however, one group continued to follow the other,” said Douglas-Cooke. “A 27-year-old man walking with his friend was viciously assaulted, that resulted in him being struck in the head with what was believed to be a rock, and he was also stabbed several times.”
