A mum has launched an emotional appeal for witnesses after her son was glassed in the face while trying to break up a fight between rival football fans in a pub. The innocent victim's eyesight was damaged for life and he was left with scarring to his face after being attacked at the Piccadilly Tap near Piccadilly station in October last year.
Crimestoppers is now offering a £2,500 reward to help catch the thug responsible. Speaking anonymously, the victim's mum said: "Last year, our son's life changed forever when a violent football fan smashed a pint glass into his face, scarring him and damaging his eyesight for life.
"He now has only 70 per cent vision in his left eye. He was trying to break up a fight between two opposing fans when the attack happened.

Gary Murray, from Crimestoppers, said: "This was a senseless attack on somebody who was trying to keep the peace, which has led to an injury that will affect him for the rest of his life.
