A cyclist has suffered a broken jaw after being punched by a man following a road traffic collision with a child. The incident, which occurred on May 13 in Hackney, London, saw the man approach the cyclist and punch him in the face before immediately leaving the scene. According to the Met Police, the male cyclist was involved in a collision with a female child on a zebra crossing in Lauriston Road.
