On Wednesday, Nov. 29, 2017, at about 10:42pm, police met with the victim, a 28-year-old Asian male. The victim was driving his car east on Batto Place, when three local men walked in front of his car, forcing the victim to stop the car. The first suspect jumped into the victim’s back seat and strangled the victim from behind, restraining the victim against the driver’s seat. The second suspect opened the driver’s door and grabbed the victim’s cell phone and wallet that were in a cup holder. The second suspect took money from the wallet and the cell phone while a third suspect stood by the car watching the crime occur.

All three suspects ran east toward a barracks area, disappearing into the dark. The victim was unable to describe the three suspects due to poor visibility.
