Authorities were looking Wednesday for four Greensburg men who allegedly punched a city man in the face with brass knuckles and kicked him during an argument over a PlayStation 3.

Arrest warrants were issued this week for Jamie Fabiszewski Jr., 18, of 716 Eastmont Drive 3C; Adam Reese, 25, last known address of 562 Euclid Ave.; David Weimerskir, 28, also of 562 Euclid Ave.; and Nicholas Anthony Iapaluccci, 18, of 604 Mt. Pleasant St., police said.

All four are charged with aggravated assault.

Fabiszewski also is accused of having a prohibited offensive weapon and possessing an instrument of crime after police said he struck the 18-year-old victim, who was not identified, in the face with the brass knuckles.

Greensburg police Capt. George Seranko said the victim approached a gathering of approximately 30 people about 9:30 p.m. Friday near the intersection of Urania and Euclid avenues.

"(The victim) wanted to know what was going on," Seranko said. "The next thing he knew, Fabiszewski punched him."

Seranko said Reese, Weimerskir and Iapalucci started kicking the victim as he lay on the ground. The assault resulted from an argument over ownership of the PlayStation 3, police said.

The victim suffered a broken bone near an eye and other facial injuries, according to police.

Anyone with information about the suspects is asked to call police at 724-834-3800.
