A man will face court today after a woman was assaulted with a bottle at a supermarket near Liverpool.

Police say that around 11.35am on Friday, a 59-year-old woman was waiting at a checkout counter of the supermarket when a man stood closely behind her and she asked him to take a step back.

While the woman was purchasing her groceries, the accused approached her from behind and allegedly hit her head with a bottle he was holding.

The bottle did not break, and the man left the store.

The woman was treated by paramedics and taken to Liverpool Hospital as a precaution.

As part of inquiries, officers from Liverpool Police Area Command were patrolling Green Valley when they saw a man in a park on Lorikeet Crescent about 11.30am yesterday.
