Police are hunting two suspects after an attack on a man who tried to stop a fight in Adelaide’s CBD.

Serious CBD assault

Two suspects who punched a man multiple times after the victim tried to break up a fight in Adelaide’s CBD remain at large.

Police have released a CCTV image of two men in a bid to locate them after the fight, which broke out about 10.30pm on Saturday, July 16, when a man had a verbal altercation with someone at a tavern on North Tce.

When a friend stepped in to defuse the altercation the suspect punched the man in the face.

The suspect stayed at the tavern for a short time, before again attacking the victim and punching him several times to the head and body.
The victim had to attend the hospital for treatment of a broken nose.

Police are urging anyone who recognises either of the pictured men to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

It comes after police last week released footage of a vicious one-punch attack that left a man unconscious in Adelaide's CBD.

The fight happened at the intersection of Crippen Place and Morphett St in the early hours of Sunday July 3.
