Police in Salt Lake City are asking for the public's help in identifying a man they said assaulted officers, including striking one in the head with a baseball bat "causing serious injury," during a May 30 protest that turned into a riot, KUTV-TV reported.

The suspect was wearing a "Love Is Always the Answer" T-shirt.

"We still need your help," police said on Twitter. "This individual assaulted officers, including striking one in the head with a baseball bat which caused serious injury. If you can identify him, or know where he is, please call 801-799-3000."
