Horrific video shows the moment a mob of bicyclists attacked and brutally beat a man in broad daylight in downtown Los Angeles.
The incident occurred when a man driving a white pickup truck got out of his vehicle and was immediately attacked by a group of four young men on May 18 on Hill Street in LA.
The video shows the man being knocked down, kicked, and stomped out repeatedly as bystanders gather and attempt to break up the assault.
What led to the violent altercation is unknown but one person told KTLA the man in the truck honked at the group of bicyclists who were serving in and out of traffic.
Another person said the man in the white truck hit one of the young men on the bicycles and they cut him off and lured him out of the vehicle.
According to police, the incident happened just after 4pm on Thursday near the intersection of Hill Street and 6th Street in LA's jewelry district.
The man who caught the attack on video said he was at work on the 13th floor of a nearby building when he heard rumblings of something happening on the street.
He told KTLA that he ran over to the window and saw the violent altercation, which included one of the attackers smashing the driver's windows with a bike handle.
'It was horrible,' said the witness, identified only as Gary.
'When I got to the window, I saw probably about six or seven kids on bicycles. There was a white pickup truck parked out front and I saw somebody smashing in the window with his bike,' he continued.
In the shocking video, the unidentified man who was attacked can be seen falling to the ground as the four young attackers kick and shove him while screaming.
Gary said bystanders who were nearby came to the man's rescue and broke up the fight after several minutes of the loud and physical incident.
The driver eventually left, taking a free moment to hop in his truck and flee from the group.
'I'm glad that people on the street helped because they were putting a number on him,' Gary said. 'I know he instantly regretted his decision to get out of his vehicle.'
