The 57-year-old male advised that he was sitting on his security bicycle, completing an incident report on a handheld device, when an unknown male ran up behind him and pushed him off of his bicycle. The 57-year-old victim advised that his fall caused pain and injury.  The victim and a witness reported seeing the suspect running toward a nearby apartment complex and being picked up by a dark in color SUV.

The suspects are facing charges of Assault on a Security Officer (3rd degree felony) and Assault Causes Bodily Injury (Class A misdemeanor).
