A fight over a man's wedding ring left him scarred by his attackers yesterday afternoon in Alum Spring Park.

Fredericksburg police report that the man was walking his dog when the first suspect asked for change. The suspect started swinging a knife at him and a second suspect struck him on the head.

While on the ground the victim was cut several times on the arms and leg as the ring was pulled from his finger. The injuries were not life-threatening.

Both suspects ran toward U.S. 1.
