A man trying to buy cigarettes at a Lakewood convenience store early Sunday assaulted a female companion and then assaulted the store clerk who called police.
The couple left together in a gray or silver sedan from the 7-Eleven at 5200 W. Colfax Ave. Lakewood police Tuesday asked for the public’s help in identifying and locating them.
The clerk initially refused to sell the cigarettes to the man, who soon returned with the woman to buy the cigarettes for him. While at the counter, the man head-butted the woman in the face.
As the pair left the store, the clerk called police, which prompted the man to punch the store clerk, police said. Anyone with information about the couple can call the Lakewood Police Department at 303-987-7111.
