#Man facing court over one-punch assault# A 22-year-old Giralang man will face court today (January 16) following his arrest yesterday for an assault which occurred in August last year (2014) outside a Civic nightclub. About 12.40am on Sunday, August 17, security staff refused a man entry to the Academy nightclub on Bunda Street, Civic. The man became aggressive and had an argument with a bystander, then struck out with a single blow, causing the victim to fall to the ground unconscious. The offender then fled on foot with two others. The victim was transported to hospital and over time, fortunately made a full recovery from the assault. The offenders description was issued and police began a systematic investigation. Yesterday afternoon members from Criminal Investigations executed a search warrant on a home in Giralang. The alleged offender was arrested on a First Instance Warrant and transported to the Regional Watch House. Police will oppose bail when he faces court today.
