Prosecutor Henry Riding said: “During the attack he delivers at least eight clear blows with his right arm and at one point he may even shift to the left.

Approximately 30 seconds after the attack, another man approached Sina Hosseinpour from behind and “began to struggle and restrain the defendant, who was still in the driver’s side of the victim’s vehicle and assaulting the victim.” CCTV showed the man pushing Sina away from the vehicle while Assad staggered out, clutching his injured arm.

All he can really say is that he’s sorry.”
