Detectives are investigating the serious assault against a British Transport Police (BTP) officer at Camden Town Underground station that left him in hospital with fractures to his face. The attack at the north London took place following England's loss to Italy in the Euro 2020 final on Sunday night. The officer was treated in hospital for fractures to his face and serious injuries to his shoulder and upper body. Detective Inspector Gary Pinner said: “This violent attack took place while one of our officers was helping a member of the public in need. While most fans took in the historic match without incident, some crowds clashed in the streets and a large group of ticketless fans even attempted to storm Wembley Stadium ahead of the match.
