ROCHESTER, Minn. -- (KXLT) -- An 18-year-old man was charged Monday in Minnesota with assault after allegedly gouging a 74-year-old relative's eyeballs out of their sockets and knocking out most of the man's teeth.
Rochester police officers were called to Rochester Square Apartments to check out a noise complaint Friday afternoon. Police say they found 18-year-old Mahad Aziz straddling the 74-year-old victim in a pool blood. Police say the attack between relatives was sustained and vicious.
