San Diego Police (SDPD) are looking for a suspect who punched a person in the face so hard, the injury will require plastic surgery to fix.
SDPD officials said the suspect attacked the person inside the Whole Foods on the 700 block of University Avenue in December.
The suspect pushed the victim once inside the store, SDPD spokesman Mark Herring said. Then, in another part of the store, the suspect punched the victim in the face and broke his orbital bone.
Police said the suspect and victim never exchanged any words.
Before police arrived, the suspect fled the scene. When police arrived, the victim said he had never seen the suspect before and did not know what could have provoked him to push and punch him.
On Monday, police released photos of the suspect, who is charged with felony battery. The suspect is described as in his 20s, police said.
Anyone with information is asked to call SDPD's Detective Bennett at his desk phone, (619) 692-4834, or his cell phone, (619) 672-0302.
