Two men attacked with sticks in separate incidents in South BendTribune Staff ReportSOUTH BEND — Two South Bend men were assaulted with a stick Thursday in what appear to be connected incidents. About 5:50 a.m., a 52-year-old man was walking in the 600 block of East South Street when one of three unidentified males approached and asked him for a cigarette, police said. The man said he didn’t have one and began to walk away, at which point the suspect reportedly hit him in the back of the head with a stick. The victim told police the suspect then chased him to a gas station at South Street and Lincoln Way East before turning and fleeing. The victim suffered a laceration to the left side of his head, police said. A few minutes later, an officer searching for the suspect near the corner of South and Rush streets came upon a man who said he had just been “jumped” by three unidentified males in the 500 block of South Street, one of whom was wielding a stick. The men were reportedly scared away by a witness. The 33-year-old man refused medical treatment for a cut to his left ear. Most PopularMore Good Stuff |
