Blonde Assault

Last Sunday, Mar. 24, a 24-year-old man reported to police he was riding with an acquaintance in a yellow cab around 11:30 p.m., coming from an address on Van Dam street and heading back to the man's home. The man reported to police that during the cab ride he got into a heated verbal argument with the acquaintance, a 26-year-old woman. The man reported to police that the woman proceeded to "punch" and "kick" him in the head and face, causing bruising and swelling to the right side of the man's eye and mouth. The man said the woman then fled the cab at the intersection of 82nd street and Third Ave. The man was treated for his injuries by the city's EMS at his address in the upper 90s. Police are looking for the woman, described as about 5' 9'', 180 pounds with long, straight, blonde hair.
