The male reported that he was walking to his parked vehicle after getting off work when a female and two males called him over to them. Two other males approached while he was talking with the first group. The female told the victim to give them his money. When he attempted to run away, one of the males struck him in the side of the face, knocking him to the ground. Members of the group then removed cash from the victim’s pants pockets and walked away. The victim was later treated for non-life threatening injuries at DCH Regional Medical and was subsequently released.
