The Daily Mail says the man was found unconscious near his home in Greater Western Sydney at about 4.40am on Saturday. Both accounts describe the victim as elderly and indicate that he suffered serious injuries consistent with an assault. The Daily Mail refers to the attacker as a “mystery attacker,” and neither source provides identifying details about the suspect. No further information about the motive, the circumstances leading up to the assault, or whether the police have made any arrests is included in the provided reports.
