Two British citizens are currently standing trials in a Wigan court for racially assaulting a Ghanaian.

The Wigan pair, Anthony Greenall, of Kimberley Street, and David Meehan, of Springfield Road, Springfield, are said to have also robbed the man identified as Eric Addo.

Appearing before the Wigan and Leigh Magistrates Court, the two have been charged with subjecting Eric Addo to a racially-aggravated attack, robbing him of keys and a dashcam and damaging his car’s wing mirror.

The case was adjourned until September 9.
