'Any attack on us is an attack on the entire community'
The owners of a community shop in West Belfast are providing support to a staff member after she was viciously attacked.
In a statement issued by the family, they said: "Whilst locking the shop one of our members of staff was viciously attacked and assaulted. This was a totally unprovoked attack/assault but what makes it all the more frightening is that the perpetrator was a woman in her late 30s or early 40s."We provide a valuable service to this community and should be able to work without fear of being attacked. Any attack on us is an attack on the entire community.
"If anyone was in the area [on Tuesday night] at around 11:15pm and witnessed this happening please contact the page privately. Any information will be treated in the strictest of confidence." Inspector Matson said: "We received a report that a female member of staff had been assaulted by a man and a woman as she was closing up the business. The victim was punched in the face and the suspects made off in the direction of Leeson Street.
