“I’ve been left with severe whiplash, a dislocated shoulder, a broken nose and a huge gash on my head.

“But it’s not just the physical injuries – I’ve been left with mental scars which will probably never go away.

“I keep having night terrors after what’s happened.

“I hope the person who did this is brought to justice soon.”

A Nottinghamshire Police spokesperson said: “A 48-year-old man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of grievous bodily harm with intent.

“He was subsequently released on conditional bail.”
