King City police asking for your help in identifying suspect

The King City Police Department is asking for your help in identifying the suspect in an unprovoked attack that occurred Thursday.

Police are looking for a Hispanic man male thought to be in his mid-30s. He is 5 feet, 8 inches tall and has a medium build. He was wearing a black Oakland A’s baseball cap at the time of the attack.

Authorities responded to a call about a fight at a gas station located on the 1100 block of Broadway Street around 9 p.m. Thursday.

A man approached the victim, who was filling up their tank, and began to punch them repeatedly. The man knocked the victim to the ground and continued to assault them.

The assailant then went inside, purchased several items and drove away in a gray Honda Accord thought to have been made between 2010 and 2014.
