Suspect Arrested In Attack On Man, 87, In Cockeysville

COCKEYSVILLE, Md. (AP) -- Police say they have arrested a 32-year-old man who fled an 87-year-old man's Cockeysville home after the older man bit his attacker.

Baltimore County police said in a news release Tuesday that Walter Ellwood Feldheim IV faces charges including first-degree assault.

Authorities say Feldheim went to the house of Bahram Sina on Dec. 14, claiming there was something wrong with his well. Police say Feldheim then attacked the Sina, at which time Sina bit Feldheim's hand and Sina's 60-year-old wife punched the attacker.

Investigators say they were able to identify Feldheim after releasing surveillance footage of a man who later used Sina's credit card to make a fraudulent purchase.

No attorney is listed for him in online court records.
