Police say the 30-year-old victim was standing in the street near the intersection at around 6:51 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 1, when he engaged in a verbal dispute with an unidentified man. During the argument, the stranger jumped into the driver’s seat of a dark-colored Nissan Altima and rammed the victim, causing him to fall to the pavement. His assailant exited the car and punched the victim multiple times before getting back into the Altima and speeding off northbound on 45th Street toward 31st Avenue.
