The incident, which resulted in minor bodily harm, took place near the lower station of the Yastrebets Express lift on February 23.
The suspect, identified as M.K., is accused of striking M.S. in the mouth while the guard was on duty. The attack led to temporary health impairment, and authorities have classified the act as being driven by hooligan motives.
