Police: Vandergrift man attacked gas station worker<\/p>\n
Pittsburgh Police have charged a Vandergrift man for allegedly attacking a gas station employee with a baseball bat on Tuesday.<\/p>\n
Police said David Rose, 41, got into an argument with an employee at the Cedar Avenue Sunoco station on the North Side shortly before 4 a.m. Tuesday morning, after the employee asked him for a cigarette.<\/p>\n
