Police have released security camera footage of an assault at a downtown club, hoping someone can identify four suspects seen in the video.

Officers said the assault happened at Cake Nightclub, located at 2114 Adelaide St. W., just east of Peter Street, on Sunday, June 28.

Two groups of people were standing outside the club at approximately 2:15 a.m., when an argument broke out.

The argument escalated, and four or five people from one of the groups assaulted a man from the other group, police said. The man was punched and kicked repeatedly, and sustained serious injuries in the assault.

Two weeks after the incident, police released video on YouTube, hoping a member of the public will be able to identify the suspects.

One of the suspects is described as a white man who is approximately 6-foot-1. He was wearing a white, button-up shirt and black pants at the time. The other suspects have been described as two men and a woman.

Anyone with more information is asked to contact police at 416-808-5200, or call Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-8477 (TIPS).
