Did you see this man at Isle Of Wight Festival 2011?

Police would like to trace him over an assault

Daniel Fahey - 20 August 2011

Jenna Goode broke her right tibia and ankle and also tore three ligaments in her right foot at the event after being rugby-tackled by a man she didn’t know, reports the BBC.

The attack was also said to be unprovoked.



The released photograph (above) was taken on Sunday 12 June at around 20:30 BST and police want to speak to the man who has both arms raised in the air.

Speaking about the attack, Mrs Goode from Southampton said: "Since the assault I have been in so much pain due to my injuries suffered.

"I spent six weeks in a wheelchair. I have suffered bad depression.

"Prior to this I was a very active person. I have a toddler to run around after and also enjoyed regular gym activity and horse riding.

"Still a couple of months down the line I am still struggling to walk and can only hope that in the next few months I can return to my way of life again."
