He 'didn't stand a chance' in 'one punch' assault

THE sister of a man killed in a "one-punch" attack said her brother "didn't stand a chance" when he was assaulted "just seconds from the front door".

Sharon Lynn whose brother Martin died last week described him as "kind", "funny" and "gentle".

She added her family's lives have been "shattered" following his death.

Heartbroken Sharon said: "My kind, funny, and gentle young brother Martin was violently and unnecessarily attacked by a motorist passing through Larkhill road in Whitehall.

"Just seconds away from the front door of our family home. A home where we had so many happy memories in a nice quiet community.

"A home that Martin lived in and felt safe in for 33 years.
