Chris Costantino.<br />“Someone hit him in the side of the face for no apparent reason,” he said.<br />The man told officers he had no issues or problems with anyone and was unsure what could have provoked the assault.<br />The man suffered a bloody nose, but declined medical attention, according to Costantino.<br />“Luckily, his injuries do not appear to be severe,” he said.<br />The victim was unable to provide a description of the assailant because the attack came from the man’s side and happened quickly, Costantino said.<br />When asked if he attributes the attack to the “knockout game,” where assailants target random people and attempt to knock them out with one punch, Costantino said he isn’t sure.<br />“There are not enough details yet,” he said. “Obviously, it is an unprovoked assault. But the logic behind it is something I do not know.” <br />About 4:30 p.m., police responded to Best Buy for a call of a woman, 22, who was robbed, according to radio traffic on a police scanner.<br />Costantino said a female employee was walking across the parking lot after her shift while talking on her phone.<br />When the woman got into her car, a white male entered the passenger side, demanding she give him her money.<br />“He told her ‘give me your money, or I’ll kill you,’” Costantino said.<br />The woman offered the suspect her debit card, but he refused, Costantino said.<br />The culprit then grabbed the woman by her throat with his left hand while attempting to start his car, he said.<br />The woman then told the suspect her purse was in the trunk of her car and that he could take it if he left her alone. The suspect then took the keys from the ignition and went to the trunk of the car to retrieve the purse. The woman exited the car and the suspect drove away in her vehicle, according to Costantino.<br />“Luckily, she was able to react quickly and get out of the car,” he said.<br />The suspect is described as a white male in his 40s or 50s, with a heavy build. He was last seen wearing a gray hunter’s coat, dark pants and a dark beanie hat, Costantino said.<br />Elyria police and other departments are looking for the woman’s vehicle — a 1998 teal Ford Escort, license plate number ELV1496, Costantino said.<br />When asked if the case would be pursued as a carjacking or attempted abduction, Costantino said he would need to review the responding officer’s report.<br />“It’s an active stolen (car) as of right now,” Costantino said. “I would like to see more details, but it certainly fits that. I would like more facts before I make a determination on exactly what it is.”Wireless.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00327912256022939023noreply@blogger.com
