A 20-YEAR-OLD man was knocked out after being punched in the face by a car driver who had just confronted him.
The victim needed hospital treatment for head injuries sustained in the attack, which took place at about 1.10am on Saturday April 27.
He was walking up Amersham Hill, High Wycombe, with a female work colleague when a car drove past the couple slowly and a remark was shouted from inside the car.
