'Vicious' attack on gay club leaves victim with fractured skull

Police officers were called to the south-east London club in the early hours of the morning on July 2, and have reported that the three assailants were asked to leave “after making homophobic comments to staff at the venue.

“After being ejected they became violent, assaulting members of staff – causing one to suffer a fractured skull and another, a fractured foot,” the Metropolitan Police statement continued.

Officers arrested two men aged 42 and 30 and one 20-year-old woman at the scene.

Investigating officer Detective Constable Phill Govett said: “This was a particularly vicious attack which stemmed from a minor incident and involved the use of homophobic language.
“Hate crime in any form will not be tolerated by police and we will take all possible action to bring perpetrators of these offences to justice.”
