A woman’s scream kept three males from doing further harm to a man they assaulted last week.
At 8 p.m. Jan. 11, the complainant was in the area of the 2200 block of South Seventh Street when several unknown figures approached him from behind, with one using a handgun to deliver a blow to his head. He gave them an undisclosed amount of cash, with the individuals trying to force him in his vehicle on the aforementioned block.
As they made the effort, an unknown female screamed as the victim was opening the car door, leading the suspects to flee in separate directions. The man received transport to Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, where personnel treated him for a head laceration.
