"A man says he was hit in the face when he confronted three teenagers riding scooters on the pavement. The 44-year-old man was left with a "bloody mouth" after the assault in Newland Avenue, Hull. Now, police want to speak to this boy in connection with the incident.

A police spokesman said: "Officers are appealing for help identifying a boy following an assault on Newland Avenue, close to the junction with Reynoldson Street, between 1pm and 2pm on July 20.

"A 44-year-old man was walking along a busy high street when he confronted three teenagers who were riding scooters along the footpath.

"Following a brief argument one of the boys allegedly stuck the victim in the face leaving him with a bloodied mouth. Police have released a CCTV still of the teenager (boy in sun glasses) they would like to speak too (sic)."

Hull really is a lovely place, isn't it.

Are scooters now classified as cycles in the UK - or is it just in Hull?

Please try to limit your posts to matters concerning cycling.

But what sort of scooters?

Perhaps it was a trio of those little folding man-scooters which were so
trendy among some London commuters back in the late 1990s.

"They have now managed to identify him and have thanked readers for
their help."
