Police look for suspect in Spring Valley bathroom attack

A 58-year-old man told police he was attacked while using the bathroom at Spring Valley Community Park late Wednesday night.

He showed up at a Terrible Herbst convenience store, 4075 S. Buffalo Drive, with a cut on the top of his head about 11:10 p.m., Metropolitan Police Department Lt. David Gordon said.

The man said he was in the bathroom at the park near West Flamingo Road and Buffalo when a younger man, somewhere between 18 and 25, came inside and attacked him with a 6- or 7-inch pipe.

Gordon said the man was taken to the hospital and was expected to live.

The assailant fled, and was still at large as of early Thursday.
