Suspects Still Sought in Home Invasion, Assault July 22, 2014

RHYDIN, R.D. —- Police continue to search today for the suspect in an assault investigation that left one man hospitalized in critical condition.

The RhyDin Watch were called by a friend to the victim's home east of RhyDin city just after 9:00 PM, where the victim was found wounded in the closet of his home.

The victim, identified by Kyle Wasek as Deacon Wrath, former member of the RhyDin Worgs Hockey Team and interim CEO of Toulson Global, was allegedly assaulted in his home with a sharp object by an unknown assailant. Though there was no evidence of forced entry, witnesses report hearing a gunshot just prior to authorities" arrival on the scene, where Wrath was found unconscious with a deep laceration to the neck.

No weapon was found at the scene.

"We're just lucky we got there when we did," Austin Palmer, Precinct 11 Watch sergeant told the Post. "We were able to secure the perimeter in a matter of minutes, and once I personally made certain the victim was out of present danger, I was able to stabilize him until the EMS arrived."

The victim was escorted to RhyDin General in critical condition. He has since been released, and is presently recovering at home.

Wrath's girlfriend, Caitlin Ross, was also on the scene when the assault took place. According to sources and several second-hand accounts, she and Wrath have had a tumultuous relationship, and had been arguing that night. Authorities confirm Ross has not been taken into custody.

"Right now, we're not sure exactly who or what did this," Palmer said. "But I can assure you that we are currently investigating many possibilities. What's important is the victim is safe and alive, all thanks to the prompt response by the RhyDin Watch. If I hadn't been there when I was, he would have bled out then and there."

Added Palmer: "We're just glad we could do our job."

Precinct 11 is currently heading the investigation. Anyone with any information is urged to contact the RhyDin Watch tips hotline.
