Deputies say the incident happened Saturday morning in the parking lot of the Home Depot Store in Pace.
Burdette Miller told deputies he was hit by a man who claimed Miller hit his car, but Miller said that never happened.
The victim said he had just dropped off his wife at the store and was looking for a parking place in the middle of a thunderstorm.
Miller said after he got out of his car, a man approached him.
According to Miller, "(The man) said, 'You hit my car,' and I said, 'Well, I don't think so, you know, I didn't feel anything.' He said, 'Yes, you hit my car,' and I said, 'Well, if I did, I'm sorry, but I don't see anything.' And about that time, evidently, he hit me and I went down."
Deputies said Miller was left unconscious and bleeding in the parking lot.
Miller's wife June, said, "He was laying down on the ground in that thunder and lightning. He could have been struck by lightning. He has a heart condition, he could have had a heart attack."
Miller was taken to West Florida Hospital where he needed a number of stitches.
Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Deputies say they're looking for a white man, 30 to 35 years old, with short blonde or light brown hair and a clean cut full face.
They say he was driving a white car, possibly a Nissan or Toyota.
If you have any information call the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office at 983-1190.

It was a car door incident according the another new agency. Still some mandatory anger management should be in order.
