Centralia detectives are investigating this morning after an individual was beaten and left in a parking lot at the 900 block of South Scheuber Road in Centralia.
Police were called last night to Providence Centralia Hospital where they spoke with the 37-year-old male victim at about 10:20 p.m.
“Basically, the person was contacted by someone, told to (drive) somewhere, he got scared and pulled over into the parking lot at the hospital,” Centralia Police Department Officer John Panco said. “Once he tried to get out of the car, he was pistol whipped.”
Panco said the victim had injuries to his face, including a possible broken nose. Someone saw him in the parking lot and helped him into the emergency room, Panco said.
The Centralia Police Department indicated this morning the suspects are known to the victim.
The suspect or suspects ran off, Panco said.

Atleast the attacker beat him close to a Hospital, what a considerate thug.
