Worker at a Tint Shop Assaulted Me

IANAL, nothing in this comment should be construed as legal advice.

You are within your right to describe his behavior to the police. After you do that it will be up to them to pursue an investigation, and if an arrest is made, recommend criminal charges to the prosecutor in that area. After you contact the police it will be out of your hands.

The flip side to this is he will tell them about your altercation as well and anything you and your father did. Keep in mind the workers saw things too.

As far as whether this is an avenue you wish to pursue, you must weigh the pros and cons and decide accordingly.

It seems unlikely that you will have civil redress as you did not mention any damages such as medical expenses or emotional suffering.
