Jason Webb in a coma. A family has issued an emotional appeal for information almost two years after a vicious street attack left a 30-year-old man with life-changing injuries. See NTI story NTIATTACK. Jason Webb was repeatedly kicked in the head after he was punched to the ground in the early hours of January 1, 2015 after attending a New Year's Eve party. He was left lying in the road in Kings Heath, Birmingham, for seven hours before he was found at 8am when paramedics were called. His heartbroken mother Anita Larden, 55, released a shocking picture of her son lying in a coma which he remained in for four weeks. Jason suffered devastating neurological injuries in the attack and doctors treated him for several bleeds to the brain. He also suffered cuts to his head and face which required stitches as well as a broken arm and nose. Now almost two years on from the attack Jason still has difficulty communicating with his family and requires around the clock medical care. West Midlands Police arrested a number of people in connection with the assault but no-one has ever been charged.
