Man Assaulted While Working Beneath Truck
A Napier Road resident requested that law enforcement officers open an investigation when he was assaulted while working beneath his truck Friday afternoon.
The seventy-year-old victim summoned Lawrence County Sheriff's deputies to his home Saturday morning to report the matter.
He reported that he had been lying on the ground, working beneath his truck when he saw a persons' feet as that individual approached him.
The victim said that when the person was standing directly beside him he began trying to move from beneath the truck, but that the individual kicked him in the face.
He told deputies that he did not know in which direction the person fled after the assault, nor was he able to identify his assailant.
The matter was documented and investigation in the case is continuing at the current time.
