Assault reported
Littleton police responded to a reported assault of a driver by
a bicyclist Aug. 23 on Prince Street.

to get out of the car and struck him several times in the face with
his fist.
The subject, a white male, 6 feet tall, 180 to 200 pounds,
wearing glasses, was last seen walking his bike east on W.
