A 65-year old victim admitted he did it. He cut in front of the 72-year old suspect as some of the area's homeless queued downtown for free food Saturday afternoon. The older man did not appreciate the budging. He yelled at the victim and then cut back in front of him, regaining his original line position. Later, after they had their food, the suspect confronted the victim with a push. The victim's head hit a wall. The suspect next scratched the victim's face before slapping it. The victim said he considered fighting back, but refrained because the suspect's age. He feared he might be arrested for elder abuse or battery to the elderly.Released 07/30/2012 at 12:57 PM by PIO Joel DeSpain
