Madison man punched on State Street

Madison police are looking for a suspect after an altercation on State Street early Sunday morning.

 

A 24-year-old Madison man suffered multiple facial injuries and was taken to the hospital after another man punched the victim several times on the 300 block of State Street, according to a Monday incident report by Madison Police Department Public Information Officer Joel DeSpain.

 

A taxi driver who reported the incident to a nearby police officer noticed the injured victim, the report said.

 

The victim approached a woman who was next to the suspect and asked if she was alright, telling police he was being "a good guy, just making sure everything was OK."

 

The suspect punched the man, and the 24-year-old told police he believes he was knocked unconscious.

Police said the victim did not provide a good description of the man who battered him.
