Coventry police are still waiting to interview the victim of a city centre attack almost a week after the city centre incident.

The 19-year-old, who has yet to be named by police, was injured in the early hours of last Friday when fighting broke out in Broadgate close to the Lady Godiva statue.

The city centre was busy with students celebrating the end of term. The man was injured when a fight broke out among a small group of revellers.

A 20-year-old student was arrested but released on police bail and officers are now waiting until the medical authorities allow them to interview the victim.

A police spokesman told CWN:

"The man is thankfully recovering from his injuries and is no longer in intensive care but he is not yet well enough to be interviewed.

"We really don’t know when we will be able to speak to him and are being guided by the medical authorities.

"We are very keen for witnesses to come forward and try to shed some light on what happened. It was a busy night in town and we are hoping someone may have seen what happened."
