Man Struck In The Head And Robbed, Group Goes Through His Car After Attacker Runs: Worcester Police

WORCESTER, MA—Police are looking for a suspect who allegedly struck another man in the head and robbed him as he walked to his car on Mt. Pleasant Street.

On Monday, May 15, around 11:20 p.m., police headed to Mt. Pleasant Street, where a man reportedly lay out on the sidewalk. They found the 45-year-old victim, who was extremely disoriented and unable to give a lucid description. He was transported to the hospital with a possible head injury.

The man had apparently been attacked and robbed, struck on the head from behind as he walked to his car, said investigators. It appeared he had been struck again, and items were taken from his pockets.

As the victim was unconscious on the ground, a group of people walked to the victim and began going through his clothes. They took his keys from his person and used them to enter his locked vehicle. They took several items out of the vehicle before leaving the victim on the ground and walking away.
