Police Scotland has confirmed that no arrests have been made more than six weeks after a shocking football fan fight in Dundee.
The violent incident at the start of last month involving dozens of supporters left one teen fan in hospital with a serious head injury.
The 17-year-old was rushed to Ninewells Hospital for emergency treatment following the mass brawl that happened at 7.20pm on Saturday 2nd April.
Officers confirmed they'd launched a major probe into the violence and put out a release naming one individual in particular.
However over a month-and-a-half later they confirmed that little progress had been made in tracking the perpretrators down and that "enquiries are ongoing."
The running battle near the city's Hilltown and its aftermath was caught on film.
The footage shows two groups of men fighting on a pavement and in the road close to the Hilltown’s junction with Alexander Street.
It is not known what started the flare-up but one fan can clearly be seen lying face down in the road after being struck.
It is unclear which fans were involved in the shocking scenes. Dundee FC played Aberdeen in the city earlier in the day. The match ended in a 2-2 draw. Dundee United were away to Hibs in Edinburgh.
At the start of the footage, taken from a window of a nearby flat, a bus and number of cars are forced to stop as the fight spills onto the road.
About 30 fans were involved in the melee that moves from the pavement onto waste ground nearby.
Thugs rain punches down on one another throughout the shocking clip, with several of the yobs seen kicking those already on the ground.
At the end of the clip a group can be seen gathering around the stricken fan who was left face down prior to an ambulance being called.
Police Scotland appealed for information immediately after the incident.
They confirmed that the teen suffered a serious head injury and was rushed to Ninewells Hospital for emergency treatment.
And they are still hunting a man, believed to be in his later thirties or early forties, in connection with the incident.
A spokesman said last month: “A 17-year-old man was assaulted following a disturbance between a large group at around 7.20pm on Saturday, 2 April, 2022 in Alexander Street near to the junction with Hilltown.
“He suffered a head injury and was taken to Ninewells Hospital for treatment.”
Police Constable Matthew Rhind of Downfield Police Station added: “We are keen to trace a man aged late thirties to early forties, heavy build, wearing black Adidas trainers, dark blue jeans, a black waist length rain jacket with a hood, a black snood, heavy set face with receding thinning brown hair.”
“We are reviewing CCTV footage in the area and I would ask anyone who may have witnessed the assault or who may have dash-cam footage, and has not yet spoken to us as yet, to contact us as soon as possible.”
“Anyone with any information should call Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident 3089 of April 2, 2022.”
