Police have released graphic footage of a violent brawl in which a man was allegedly punched in the face and beaten at a popular Wynnum hotel in April.
The graphic video showed two men in the lounge bar of the Waterloo Bay Hotel.
One man appeared to lunge at another male patron and punch him before he fell to the ground.
A 27-year-old Wynnum West man suffered multiple facial fractures and was taken to hospital where he had surgery, police said.
Police investigations indicated that the alleged fight broke out about 1am on Sunday, April 21, inside the Berrima St venue.
The video showed a female bar staff escorting a man wearing a hoodie to the front door.
The video then showed the man leaving the hotel.
Police said the man left in a large, dark-coloured SUV.
Detectives from Wynnum Criminal Investigation Branch released the CCTV vision on May 28 in a bid to track down a man they believe might be able to help with their investigations into the April 21 brawl.
They were treating the incident as potential grievous bodily harm.
Police urged anyone who may recognise any of the people in the video to contact them.
