A man is wanted by police in Prince George’s County, Maryland, after allegedly assaulting a senior citizen in Beltsville earlier this month.

Officers were alerted of an assault in a home parking lot in the 11300 block of Cherry Hill Road on June 2 at approximately 7:30 p.m. The victim, a man in his eighties, was seriously injured.
