When Gardiner screamed at them to get away from his partner, they turned towards him, he said.
“One of them hit me in the face. I was in high heels, so I crumpled to the ground. All of them started kicking, punching and stomping on me and wouldn’t stop.”
He said blood ran into his eyes and he was unable to breathe properly.
“I could hear my partner begging them to stop.”
