So So Gay
PinkNews reports that a 27-year-old man had to be treated in hospital for a fractured jaw after being punched in a homophobic attack in Bootle, Merseyside.
DC Peter Tynan, from the Sigma Hate Crime Unit, said: “The force is committed to making Merseyside a safe place for all regardless of ethnic origin, gender, age, disability, sexual orientation, religion or belief and to the belief that everyone has the right to be treated with fairness, dignity and respect.
“Those who carry out hate crimes targeting people because of their difference should be left in no doubt that their behaviour will not be tolerated and that robust action will be taken to ensure they are arrested and prosecuted for their actions.
“We ask anyone with any information about this unprovoked attack to come forward so we can bring the offenders to justice.”
