I could use some advice, I don't think there is anything I can do but please let me know for sure...
Yesterday I went into a convenience store and was waiting in line for the cashier when a man came in and cut in line in front of everyone. I said there were other people first and he got really aggressive asking who I thought I was, etc... He then swung on me, I tried to defend myself but I got punched really hard in the eye. As of now half my face is completely numb, my eyeball is dented and bleeding, and my vision is obstructed.
I filed a police report, but no one got a tag number or anything, so all we can go on is descriptions of the man, his vehicle and the video tape from the store. I think I need medical help but I have no insurance, and already owe thousands for an ER visit last month. I simply can't pay for it, while the guy responsible walks around scott free.
What should I do? Keep bugging the police? Hire a detective? Is there any hope of finding him and if so, is there any hope of getting him to pay for the damages? Or am I just out of luck?
