A Kansas City landlord is accused of attacking his tenant with a wooden pole in the parking lot of a Sheffield neighborhood convenience store this week.

Authorities said the encounter landed both men in the hospital with serious injuries.

Haidar Alkhuzaii, of Riverside, was charged Tuesday in Jackson County Circuit Court with first-degree assault and armed criminal action. As of Monday night, he remained hospitalized with serious injuries and was being monitored by police officers.

During a police interview, the alleged assault victim said he was standing outside the store — identified in court papers as his workplace — and smoking a cigarette when Alkhuzaii, his landlord, pulled up in a vehicle with another person. He alleged that Alkhuzaii was armed with a wooden pole and started hitting him in the head unprovoked.
 
The victim also told police Alkhuzaii was “upset that the rent has not been paid,” a detective wrote in charging documents.
