COLUMBUS, Ohio — Detectives are asking for help identifying three suspects involved in a violent assault that occurred earlier this month near E. 12th Avenue and N. High Street, according to the Columbus Division of Police.

On July 5, two victims were walking in the area when three unknown individuals approached and began attacking the male victim, striking him multiple times in the face and body. Police said the assault resulted in several lacerations and broken bones.
When the female victim tried to intervene, one of the suspects bit her before all three fled on foot.
Police have not released surveillance images or suspect descriptions but are urging anyone with information to contact the department.
