Gold Coast police release footage of man wanted in relation to 2008 street attack A TALL suspect possibly nicknamed 'Stick' is being hunted by Gold Coast police over a brutal 2008 street assault that left a NSW man partially blinded. Detectives from the Coast's Major and Organised Crime Squad have released CCTV footage of the man they want to question over the incident which happened in Coolangatta in early hours of November 23, 2008, as the 44-year-old was out on the town after a Rugby World Cup game between Australia and NZ. Police say the victim was walking along Marine Parade when he was stopped by a group of people and asked to take their photo. He was approached by another group of men, one of whom took the camera. When he asked for it back, he was punched and kicked and his head struck a table as he fell to the ground. The man lost sight in one eye as a result of his injuries. Police are appealing for anyone who recognises the alleged attacker in this CCTV footage (WATCH IT BELOW) to come forward. They say the man, who may may be known as 'Stick' was tall and wearing long pants and a dark t-shirt. Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
