Police are looking for a man who attacked a 20-year-old woman after she refused to dance with him at a local bar.

The man asked her to dance at Cabo Cafe, at 2301 Red Tide Road off Shore Drive, but she declined, said Officer Adam Bernstein, a police spokesman.

Then, as the woman was leaving at about 1:40 a.m. Wednesday, he confronted her in the parking lot, Bernstein said. They argued, and the man pulled out a knife and attacked her. She suffered injuries requiring stitches and staples to her forehead, he said.

The man fled, Bernstein said. He’s described as black, between 21 and 28 years old, and 6 feet 3 inches tall with a muscular build. He was wearing a gray skullcap and a gray T-shirt with a black design on it.

Police ask that anyone with information on this case call Crime Solvers at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP
