Elderly man attacked in carjacking

Disturbing surveillance video shows a group of three suspects violently attack an elderly Las Vegas man.

It happened just as the 78-year-old was getting out of his car to eat at a Mexican restaurant.

The men can be seen punching the victim as they stole his car keys and other belongings.

Nearby restaurant workers say they yelled at the thieves and scared them off.

The man suffered from fractures around his eyes.

Police say the thieves beat the man for no reason.

Las Vegas police capt. Laz Chavez said, “This man provided no resistance. And yet, the suspects savagely beat him, took his car keys, took his cell phone. And even after they retrieved all that, they went back and beat him some more.”

Police have arrested three suspects they believe to be the men who committed the crime.

They are waiting for the victim to identify them.
