Detectives investigating a serious assault which left a man in hospital have placed a suspect before magistrates.
Police were called to Milton Street, Nottingham city, around 12.20am on 20 July following reports a man had been assaulted.
The victim suffered injuries to his ribs and a punctured lung as a result of the attack, and remains in hospital.
Officers have analysed hours of CCTV footage and carried out other local inquiries as part of their investigation.
They have now charged a 49-year-old man from Nottingham with committing grievous bodily harm with intent.
He appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Monday (29 July) and will next appear at Nottingham Crown Court on 27 August.
Detective Constable Rory Greer, of Nottinghamshire Police, said:
“The victim has been seriously injured as a result of this assault.
“I hope his family are at least comforted by our investigation, which has led to this suspect being arrested, charged and put before the courts.”
