A BRUTAL assault in a car park left a man with a broken eye socket.

Police were called to the car park behind KFC in Crawley High Street on Monday at about 7pm, where the attack took place.

A man had his nose broken and had to be taken to hospital for treatment, where it was confirmed his eye socket had also been fractured.

Police are appealing for any witnesses of the attack to come forward.

They also believe that a man pictured in the area at the time on CCTV, above, may have seen what happened.

He is thought to be a delivery driver and was wearing a dark coloured motorcycle jacket and carrying a motorcycle helmet.
