A 70-year-old man was left in need of surgery after being violently assaulted a court has heard.
Julian Tinney of Maple Vale, Beauly needed surgery for a broken cheek bone and fractured eye socket and had five metal plates and nine screws inserted after the assault.
But a jury at Inverness Sheriff Court heard today that he did not know who attacked him or why and his only memory after parking his car on June 15, 2018 was waking up in hospital.
