Detective Inspector Simon Ellershaw today appealed for information. He said: "It was broad daylight in a popular park. I am appealing for anyone who may have seen or heard anything of the incident. Did you see a white girl fighting with a light-skinned black man?"
The girl was wearing black leggings, brown Ugg boots and a brown top. Anyone with information should call 020 8284 8300 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
