Teen Reports Assault: Punched, Struck with Gun

An Annapolis teen told police he was assaulted by someone he knew early on Wednesday morning.

The incident occurred at about 1 a.m. in the 700 block of Newtowne Drive, which is the same area where a teen asked police for help after shooting himself in the leg on Friday, according to the Annapolis Police Department.

A 19-year-old Annapolis man told police that an acquaintance walked up to him and punched him in the face, then drew a handgun and struck him with it.

The man reportedly ran to his car and called police. He refused medical attention, according to police.
