His 10-year-old son was subjected to racially aggravated intentional harassment.

PC Sian Evans said: “This was a nasty racially aggravated attack and we are asking for any witnesses to the assault to come forward, particularly anyone with CCTV or phone video of what happened.

The offenders were aged about 16. One is described as wearing a black ripped top, grey joggers, carrying a red Adidas man bag and white Jordans. Another one wore a grey tracksuit and black body warmer. They ran off after the incident which happened at about 4.30pm on Tuesday.
