DERBY — Police are asking for the public’s help to identify an assault suspect.
Police used social media Friday to post several images of a man they said was a suspect in an assault that happened inside the ShopRite grocery store on Pershing Drive.
Police did not provide a specific date or time of the incident. They declined to describe the nature of the assault.
UPDATE: Police told The Valley Indy the assault was physical in nature, and involved another man in the store who was not wearing a face mask as required due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“The male has a bald head, glasses, dressed in black hat, black mask and wearing a black sweatshirt,” according to the post. “If anyone has any information, please contact the Derby Police Department Detective Sullivan at (203) 735‑7811 X‑319. Calls may remain confidential.”
