The PSNI have appealed for witnesses to an assault in L'Derry which left a man with severe head injuries.
The attack occurred in the Waterloo Place area of the city on Saturday 6 July at around 1.45am.
The victim, who is aged in his 20s, was reported to have been punched once by another man and was taken to hospital for treatment.
