Peachtree City police are investigating a daylight assault that was reported to have taken place late last week on one of the city’s cart paths.

A post in one of Peachtree City’s community Facebook groups asserted that a neighbor was out for a run and was attacked by a masked perpetrator. The victim fought back and removed the attacker’s mask, at which time he fled into the entrance of the nearby Balmoral apartment complex.

A spokesman for the Peachtree City Police Department confirmed that an assault did occur June 14 at around 6:30 p.m. and investigators are following up on it.

”An assault did occur on the multi-use path system behind the ReNew Apartments Braelinn,” according to a statement. “She did fight back and remove his mask during the struggle. The Criminal Investigations Division is investigating the matter at this time.”
