This is the man police want to trace following a vicious assault in a busy Inverness bar.

These CCTV images from Hootananny in Church Street have been released as part of a fresh effort to find the person responsible for the attack, which left a 25-year-old with serious facial injuries.

The pictures show the man calmly walking through a corridor close to an upstairs bar area.

Just 20 minutes later, he attacked another late-night reveller.

Police investigating the incident described the attack, at around 2.30am on Sunday June 14, as “apparently unprovoked”.

Now officers are appealing to anyone who recognises the man to contact them immediately.

He is described as in his mid-20s to around 30-years-old.

He appears to be about 6ft in height with dark hair, gelled in a comb-over style.

On the night of the attack, he was wearing a black or very dark green t-shirt, dark blue jeans and black shoes with white stripes on the sides.

The pub is one of the busiest in Inverness, sitting at the junction between Church Street and Fraser Street.

It has a downstairs bar and restaurant which regularly showcases traditional live music.

The upstairs bar area, known as Madhatters, opens later at weekends and features various types of music.

Meanwhile, police have also launched a fresh appeal for an unconnected assault on a woman.

She was targeted around 2.10pm on Monday, June 8 on Damfield Road in the Hilton area of the city.

The victim had been walking towards Old Edinburgh Road, when she was assaulted by a man, who is believed to be around 50-years-old.

Police have not release the age of the woman.

The suspect is described as being around 6ft 1in, of slim build with grey shoulder length hair and a grey beard.

At the time of the attack he was wearing a dark coloured knee length coat and dark trousers.

He was last seen heading towards the Old Hilton Hospital which has been turned into residential flats on Damfield Road.

A police spokesman said: “If anyone has any information about the incident they are encouraged to contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or online at www.crimestoppers-uk.org.

“No personal details are taken, information is not traced or recorded and you will not go to court.”
