Cowardly attack

A disabled man who was knocked unconcious in a violent assault said he feared the attack could have made his brain injuries worse.

The 42-year-old, who damaged the left side of his brain in a motorcycle accident 21/2 years ago, returned to work on Monday after a week-long recovery.

The man, who asked not to be named, said he was now too scared to go out in Newark at night and would always drive into town, despite living only a five-minute walk from the centre.
