Oklahoma City police are looking for a suspect who assaulted a man during an attempted robbery.

According to police, the incident happened on September 20 in the parking lot of McDonald’s, located at 113 N.W. 23rd Street. The victim told police he was walking to his vehicle when the suspect came up to him and tried to grab his backpack. The backpack contained a laptop and a personal check.

The victim said during the struggle, the suspect kicked him twice on his left side and punched him in the head. The suspect then ran to the west side of McDonald’s and got into a vehicle with the tag #946JWA.

The suspect was caught on the restaurant’s camera inside. Another man who was seen entering the restaurant with the suspect is also wanted for questioning in connection to this case, though Oklahoma City police said he wasn’t involved in the assault.

On Tuesday, September 27, police released a surveillance video taken while the suspect was inside the restaurant. If you recognize the men, or have any information, call Crime Stoppers at (405)-235-7300 or by submitting a tip online.
