A Leeds city centre homeless man knocked a reveller unconscious with one punch that was heard by shocked onlookers up to 200 metres away.
The victim suffered a fractured skull, a bleed to the brain and was in hospital for six months caused by the single blow delivered by Luke Rawson, Leeds Crown Court was told. The pair were seen arguing on Briggate shortly before 5am on April 16 last year when witnesses said they saw 32-year-old Rawson lash out, striking the man to the face. He fell back and struck his head on the concrete floor.
He has no recollection of that night, and despite being discharged from hospital, still has long-lasting effects and spends most days sleeping. Rawson, now of Cottingley Court, Beeston, gave a no-comment interview to police, but did concede that the victim did not deserve to be punched. He said he did not like the way the man was talking to him, but admitted the victim was not offering any threat of violence. He pleaded guilty to a charge of Section 20 GBH, wounding without intent.
