WITNESSES to two attacks in which pensioners suffered horrific injuries are being sought by police.
Greater Manchester Police believe Colin Peacock, aged 81, and Peter Buckland, aged 66, were victims of the same attacker in Manchester's Moss Side district. Mr Peacock needed 32 stitches in his face after he broke his cheekbone when the mugger pushed him to the ground. Police say both men are frightened to leave their homes after the attacks last month.
