He then fled the scene, leaving the e-scooter behind.
The incident happened at about 5.15pm on August 22.
Detective Sergeant Alana Scott, of Nottinghamshire Police, said: “This was a nasty and unprovoked assault that greatly impacted the victim.
“Having sustained a broken jaw, he was in hospital for six days and required a metal plate to be surgically implanted for the rest of his life.
"Added to this was the financial loss he endured while recovering from surgery and being unable to work.
