WINONA, Minn. – A Winona man told police that he was punched in the face twice by a neighbor when he answered a knock at his apartment door. The assailant turned and left, the man said. The man, age 60, still was bleeding from a cut lip when police arrived. The incident appeared to culminate an ongoing feud over cigarette smoking, police said. The assailant, police were told, had complained about smoke drifting into his unit and had left notes not to smoke. The apartment building, in the 450 block of West Sarnia, has a no smoking policy. Both parties were asked to complete statement papers within five days to help determine whether an assault charge would be filed.
