At an Atlanta Waffle House last October:
Kid Rock and half a dozen bodyguards vs. one poor guy just trying to get his hash browns scattered, smothered and covered. Pamela Anderson's ex takes a swing about 40 seconds in.
Wonder if the King of the Trailer Park used his pattened "open-faced yet close-knuckled" technique that did in Tommy Lee.
The Associated Press reported that Rock, along with 5 of his bodyguards, were arrested in the incident. Rock got a year's probation and was fined $1,000; he also had to take 6 hours of anger management classes and do 80 hours of community service.
Hope that helped.

Letter carrier punched in face in Reading
Reading police said a U.S. Postal Service letter carrier investigating a possible theft of mail Wednesday morning was punched in the face by a teen.
Bill Laudeman, 58, suffered facial injuries but declined immediate medical attention, police said.
Investigators gave this account:
Laudeman was delivering mail in the 900 block of North Fourth Street shortly after 11 when he saw a teenage male looking through mail that police think was stolen from someone in the block.
Laudeman asked the male what he was doing and the male dropped the mail and walked away.
Laudeman followed, asked again what he was doing and told him to wait for police.
The male turned around and punched Laudeman before running away. He was last seen headed west on Douglas Street.
Police described the male as Latino, 15 or 16 years old, 5 feet 9 inches tall and 170 pounds with short hair and sideburns. He was wearing a black shirt and had a black backpack.
Laudeman suffered cuts to his nose and lip and his glasses were bent. He told police he might see a doctor later.
Police said they were not sure how much mail the teen had taken or what he was looking for.

Transients love flowers, punches too
From The Capital Times in Madison, Wisconsin:
An ex-cop was tending to his flower garden when a Wisconsin hobo insisted he be bestowed with a beautiful flower. After an argument, the cop agreed to give the vagabond one of his blooms. But the dirty bum ruined it, turning a lovely bonding incident into a need to pay bond.
Come on, people, remember: The flowers are for everybody to enjoy. Let's all hold hands.

Praise the Lord, punch the face
From the Post-Standard in Syracuse, New York:
A geriatric throwdown ensued immediately following a church prayer session. Two men in their late 70s got into an argument about loans -- one man, 78, thought the church should loan him $2,000. Who borrows money from their church?
When the 77-year-old holy loan officer wouldn't comply, he got jacked.
Who would Jesus punch?

Teen punches adult in face, experience said to be "upsetting"
From This is Lancashire in the U.K.:
What happens when you don't provide children some extracurricular activities or harmless recreational drugs to keep them occupied/sedated? They end up tearing up flower beds in an effort to make something beautiful ugly. A group of British teenagers did just that, and when a 64-year-old woman attempted to confront the little monsters about the incident, she got sucker-punched for her troubles.
The real gem in this story is Sgt. Danny Brophy of the Bolton Police, who is also the lieutenant of stating the obvious in an unnecessarily long, boring fashion.

One of the girls, aged around 16, reacted by punching the woman in the face. She was left with a cut under her eye and a swollen face and rushed home to call the police.

"This lady has been left extremely shaken by what has happened to her. It was a very upsetting experience. All she was trying to do was to stop these young people stealing flowers from the elderly residents in the area and she was assaulted. This is unacceptable behaviour and I would appeal to anyone in the community who knows who was responsible for this to contact us. These individuals do not deserve to be protected."

Bicyclist punched, bike assaulted
From the Redditch Advertiser in the UK:
No motivation has been provided for a random assault on a cyclist by a man who is obviously a badass, as evidenced by his brown leather jacket. The bike rider was approached on foot by the man in the leather jacket and rather than ride away, the biker stayed long enough to be punched in the head, twice. The attacker then engaged in an Incredible Hulk-style act of rage.
Man, that guy sounds like a total rebel. I bet he could tear a phonebook in half. He probably has sex -- with women.

The victim, a 39-year-old man, was cycling along Easemore Road when he was approached by another man who was on foot. The offender punched him twice to the head and then picked up the victim's cycle and threw it at a car before walking off.

Celebration, Fla.: Where face punching doesn't exist
From WKMG TV in Orlando:
In the early '90s, Disney founded the town of Celebration, Fla., hoping to create a utopian community where families could raise their children with no risk of robbery with a punch to the face. That dream recently came crashing down.
Apparently the suits behind Celebration decided they'd try to keep the incident under wraps and unknown to residents. Little-known fact: It says in the Celebration city charter that a wallop to the dome is punishable by a permanent ban from riding "It's a Small World."

Some said they are angry warnings were not posted sooner.
"I would want people to know, whether in a mailbox, like to say, "Keep an eye out for this person and this is what happened," resident Valerie said.

Puncher provides drunken self-reflection
From the UK's Lincolnshire Echo:
Laura Stockbridge doesn't handle alcohol very well. The Lincolnshire teen was reportedly drunk when she confronted a woman she did not know, accusing her of being someone's ex-wife. Apparently it was a good enough reason for assault.
Interestingly, Stockbridge gave her night's inebriation a perfect score:
The teen told officers she regrets the incident and was "wrecked" that night, having consumed alcohol from 6 p.m. until 2:50 a.m.

Charlotte Sun twofer!
From the same Police Beat on the same day - April 5. All the face you can punch. And a Tasing, bro!
Man reportedly assaults paramedic
A Rotonda West, Fla., man was allegedly intoxicated when he reportedly assaulted a Charlotte County paramedic. According to a Charlotte County Sheriff’s report, Paul Mains, 53, was on the floor of the garage of his home when a deputy arrived on the scene.
The deputy witnessed the paramedic help Mains to his feet, after which the man punched the paramedic in the face without warning, the report shows.
The deputy attempted to pull Mains away from the paramedic before using a Taser, which struck Mains in the middle of his back. Mains was restrained and placed in the rear seat of the deputy’s car. While there, he reportedly began crying and told the deputy he was sorry for what he did. Soon after, he told the deputy he had difficulty breathing and was transported to Englewood Community Hospital. After he was seen by an emergency room doctor and medically cleared, Mains was released into CCSO custody. When he was taken to the jail, Mains reportedly told the deputy he would find out where he lived and that the deputy would “pay” for what he did. Mains was booked at the Charlotte County Jail and charged with simple battery on an EMT and resisting an officer without violence. He was held without bond.
Report: Denied beer leads to battery
A Port Charlotte, Fla., man reportedly assaulted his roommate, breaking his ankle and punching him in the face, after the victim would not give the man a beer. According to a Charlotte County Sheriff’s report, Barry Robert Rochleau, 19, was refused a beer by his roommate because Rochleau is not of legal drinking age.
The denial reportedly upset Rochleau, who then, according to the victim, pushed the roommate to the ground and began punching him in the head. He then stomped on the victim’s right ankle.
The roommate told deputies that when he attempted to call 911, Rochleau prevented him from doing so. The victim also told deputies that Rochleau spent 30 minutes telling his roommate what story they would tell authorities to explain his injures. After about 30 minutes, the victim said he was allowed to call 911. Rochleau reportedly told deputies on the scene that his roommate had consumed several beers and tripped on something in the house. The CCSO report states there was no evidence to support Rochleau’s claims, and the victim was transported to Fawcett Memorial Hospital where he was treated for a broken ankle and “several bumps to the head consistent with punches.” Rochleau was taken to the Charlotte County Jail and charged with kidnapping, obstructing justice and battery. He was held without bond.

His dogs are barking
From the Skelmersdale Advertiser in England:
A 25-year-old man walking his dog at 3 a.m. took one in the kisser.
If your dog won't rabidly defend you in an attack, you need a new one.

Ceramic pot, bar patron attack blood-spitting baseball pitcher
From The Canadian Press:
Al Reyes, a drunk pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays, got into a scuffle at a bar with a ceramic pot. The 38-year-old then picked a fight with a man he thought shoved him into the pot. Turns out, the bar patron he went after was just as tough as that ceramic pot that took him down in the first place.
After the brawl police showed up, prompting the pitcher, with a cut nose, to spit blood on them. They Tased him, bro.

Val Kilmer assaulted live on radio show
From the Pittsburgh Tribune Review:
Oh wait, it's not THAT Iceman from Top Gun? OK, anyhow, a guy who goes by the name of Iceman (he actually sells ice) was live on the radio, via telephone, talking smack about the local fire department when someone, driving either a city vehicle or an ambulance, took offense. The driver pulled into the parking lot of North Pole Ice in Uniontown, assaulting the owner, Brian "Iceman" Oros, live on the afternoon radio show "Let's Talk."
The lesson? Don't mess with the fire department.

"He hits me in the left side of the face," said Oros, who yesterday had a barely detectable bruise and bump on one side of his face. "I hit him back."

Punched in face, officer tasers 11-year-old girl
From Fox TV in Orlando, Fla.:
I'm not sure what the physical requirements of being a police officer are. I'm also unsure who would place a a school resource officer who cannot fight an 11-year-old girl at an elementary school.
The pre-teen spawn of Satan apparently pushed a fellow student into oncoming traffic. Thankfully no one was hurt, but when the little girl made a scene and attempted to spit at teachers, the school resource officer was called in to take care of business -- or not.
The officer was taken to the hospital with a broken nose, and is obviously in the wrong line of work.

Officials say when officer Hudepohl arrived she asked the student to go with her to the office and she refused, pushed Hudepohl, and then punched her in the face, causing her nose to bleed.
Deputy Hudepohl attempted to secure the student however but the student continued to fight so Officer Hudepohl then tasered the girl.

Four-year-old grudge leads to 'proper' punching
From the UK's Chronicle Live:
At all costs, avoid pissing off Britain's Hayley Barker. The former bartender was fired from her job and let her anger build up for four years before she exacted revenge with her fists.
After the initial attack, Barker's former boss said she then started to scratch him in the face. Ironically, she lost her job in the first place for picking fights.
At all costs, avoid pissing off Britain's Hayley Barker. The former bartender was fired from her job and let her anger build up for four years before she exacted revenge with her fists.
The married 43-year-old passed her handbag to a friend and flew at (Brian Dixon), punching him twice in the face. Mr Dixon, of Ullswater Way, Slatyford, said: “She went mental. She punched me twice, not slaps but proper punches.
After the initial attack, Barker's former boss said she then started to scratch him in the face. Ironically, she lost her job in the first place for picking fights.
“She’s been barred now thankfully. I told her the reason she was sacked was precisely because she was so abusive.”
