North Little Rock police say a truck driver pulled out a knife and chased a man across a parking lot early Sunday.
It happened around 8:30 a.m. at 3300 Valentine Road near the street's intersection with U.S. 70, according to a report from the city's Police Department.
After the 65-year-old victim asked the driver to move his vehicle so he could exit the parking lot, the man pulled out a 6-inch knife and threatened to cut him up "real good," authorities said.
At this point, the victim “decided it would be a good idea to walk away,” but when he turned to go, the driver punched him in the side of the head and chased him across the parking lot, the report stated.
The knife-wielder, last seen fleeing toward U.S. 70, was described as a 200-pound black male standing 5 feet 10 inches tall and driving a truck with a flat-bed trailer.
The 65-year-old, who was listed in the report as a driver from Deville, La., told officers his $400 prescription glasses were damaged beyond repair during the assault.
No suspects were named and no arrests had been made at the time of the report.
