Football star's brother still sought after attack.
DETECTIVES are still searching for the brother of Premiership footballer
Tim Cahill, wanted after allegedly blinding a man in one eye.
In a renewed appeal, police say Sean Cahill is one of seven suspects who
have failed to answer to bail granted by Bromley police, since 2005.
Sean Cahill, 28, formerly of Ravensbourne Road, Bromley, was charged
with assault after an incident outside a cab firm in East Street,
Bromley, in the early hours of Sunday, July 11, 2005.
At approximately 2.50am, Sean Cahill was allegedly involved in a fight
with a 28-year-old man from Orpington.
Both Sean and his brother Tim had been in Bromley nightclub Delano’s
earlier in the evening.
The victim claims it was the Everton player’s brother who assaulted him,
resulting in horrific injuries.
He received nerve damage to one of his eyes and, despite the best
efforts of specialists at the Princess Royal Hospital, Farnborough and
Queen Mary’s Hospital, Sidcup, he lost the sight in his eye.
The victim also lost his trade, as well as having to go through
extensive dental treatment.
Borough commander Chief Supt Charles Griggs said: “I would urge anyone who
has any information on Cahill’s whereabouts to contact Bromley police.
“If an individual doesn’t answer their bail or fails to turn up at
court, we don’t just forget about them. We regularly review all of our
outstanding wanted people and implement a plan of action to arrest
them.”
The appeal for information comes on the back of a request by Bromley
Extra into the number of outstanding warrants Bromley police have on
record.
Three are for burglary, two for vehicle crime, one for criminal damage
and the one for Sean Cahill.
Mr Griggs added: “We have had significant success doing this and will
continue to target those individuals.”
Anyone with information about Cahill’s whereabouts or the alleged
attack, may call Bromley police on 01689 891212 or Crimestoppers
anonymously on 08500 555 111.
