Woman attacked near SLO County pier while eating fast food in her car, sheriff says
The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office is searching for a Los Osos woman suspected of attacking another woman in the parking lot of the Cayucos Pier on Thursday night.
At about 9:30 p.m. Thursday, deputies responded to reports of an assault in the parking lot at the north side of the Cayucos Pier, Sheriff’s Office spokesman Tony Cipolla said Friday.
When deputies arrived, a 47-year-old woman told them she had been assaulted, Cipolla said.
The alleged victim told deputies she was with two other friends, sitting in the back seat of a parked car with her car door open and eating a fast food meal, when the suspect — identified as 31-year-old Amanda Lynn Doyle of Los Osos — approached her car door, Cipolla said.
Cipolla said the two got into some kind of altercation. That’s when the alleged victim says Doyle reached inside the vehicle and began punching her, according to the spokesman.
The woman says she felt the suspect hit her once on her head with an unknown object before running off, Cipolla said.
The alleged victim then noticed she was bleeding and had a cut on on her head, the spokesman said, noting that she refused medical treatment.
Cipolla said the Sheriff’s Office is currently investigating the case.
