Investigators in Allegheny County are looking for help from the public in identifying people involved in an assault that put a man in the hospital.
Verona Police Department Chief Thomas Dessell says officers responded to a report of a physical altercation involving a group of men around 7:46 p.m. in the 700 block of 2nd Street. Initial reports indicate one man was assaulted by a group of men.
The victim sustained facial and head injuries during the assault. Medics took him to a Pittsburgh-area trauma center for treatment.
Dessell says there was significant pedestrian activity during the incident because of trick-or-treating in the neighborhood.
Investigators believe people in the area may have witnessed the incident or seen those involved before or after the attack. The Verona Police Department is asking anyone with information, photographs, video or surveillance footage to contact them at 412-828-6034.
