Woman punched, in serious condition
BY KEITH EPPS
A 29-year-old woman was knocked unconscious and seriously injured Friday when she was punched in the face outside a Fredericksburg nightspot.
City police spokeswoman Natatia Bledsoe said the incident occurred about 10:40 p.m. outside Central Station at 1917 Princess Anne Street.
The woman, a Stafford County resident, was heading toward the front door with her boyfriend and nephew when they were approached by another man.
A witness said that after a brief discussion, the man punched one of the woman’s companions in the face.
The woman intervened and was also punched in the face. She was knocked out immediately, and her head struck the ground.

The woman intervened and was also punched in the face. She was knocked out immediately, and her head struck the ground.
The assailant then punched the second man before getting into the passenger side of what a witness described as a “boxy” car, possibly a Honda Element or a Toyota Scion, and leaving.
The woman was rushed to the hospital and admitted to the intensive care unit with life-threatening injuries, including bleeding on the brain.
Bledsoe said Monday that she didn’t have an official update on the woman’s condition, but she said she had heard that the victim was improving.
It was unclear what led to the punches being thrown. Police said the two men with the victim were highly intoxicated and unable to offer a lot of information.
A bouncer saw the incident, but the woman was already unconscious by the time he reached the scene.
The man who punched the woman was described as a light-skinned black man in his late 20s or early 30s, 6 feet tall and 230 pounds. He was clean shaven, with short cropped hair.
