At 1:25 this morning, on 25th and Bartlett, a 29-year-old man was approached by a group of men between the ages of 25 and 30 and struck on the head with an unknown metal object. One of the men grabbed the victim’s cell phone, and the group then piled into a dark-colored Honda Civic and drove away. The victim refused medical treatment. No arrests have been made.
