LAKEPORT, Calif. – Police are continuing their investigation into an early morning fight last week that left a Northshore man with serious head injuries.
Lakeport Police responded to the report of a bar fight downtown early on the morning of Thursday, July 5, finding a 28-year-old man from Nice down in the street at the intersection of N. Main and Second streets, as Lake County News has reported.
Chief Brad Rasmussen said Saturday that the victim – whose name has not yet been released by police – remained in critical condition at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital.
Rasmussen said officers so far have not been able to speak to the victim, and hope to do so once the hospital notifies them that his condition has improved.
Since the fight took place, police have received a number of leads that are aiding their investigation, Rasmussen said.
“We expect to be able to solve this case,” Rasmussen said.
In connection with the assault, police also are investigating a break-in at a residence on Sixth Street that they believe was in retaliation for the fight.
Anyone with information regarding one or both of the incidents is asked to contact the Lakeport Police Department at 707-263-5491.
