The victim told investigators that as he got out of his vehicle, three unknown men got out of a white Toyota Camry and suddenly started to attack him.
During the attack, the victim said that the suspects kicked and punched him while going through his pockets and removed his wallet, keys and cell phone.
HPD said two of the suspects then ran back to the white Toyota Camry as the third suspect got into the victim's vehicle and drove towards a dead end in the apartment complex.
The suspects then turned the vehicles around and drove towards the victim, who attempted to stop the suspects from leaving, according to HPD.
The victim then got on the hood of the white Toyota Camry as police said the suspects sped through the parking lot trying to force the victim off the hood.
