You can sue him for battery (and maybe for other things) if you know who he is, but unless he can afford to pay a judgment there may be no point in doing so. Keep in mind that he won't be earning much if he goes to prison, so even if he has a good income now that may dry up in the near future.

Sure. What assets does he have worth taking, after spending the time and substantial money you'll invest in a lawsuit? It would certainly surprise me if he had anything of value.
