A 25-year-old Ann Arbor man had to seek medical treatment after he was assaulted and robbed early Thursday morning by four unknown men.

Ann Arbor police Lt. Renee Bush said the man had gone to the bar with some friends before going to Pizza House for a late-night meal Thursday. At 3 a.m., he was walking in the 900 block of Oakland Avenue when four men approached him.

One of the men told him “Don’t ever look at my girlfriend again” and a second man pushed the 25-year-old man to the ground. Bush said the four men punched the man in the face and one of them stole his cellphone.

It took until Friday for the incident to be reported to police. The man went for treatment at Urgent Care in the 500 block of North Maple Road. Personnel there notified police of the incident.

One man was described as white, 5-foot-10 inches tall, with dark hair and wearing a dark jacket. The man was unable to describe any of the other three men, Bush said.

Anyone with information on this incident is encouraged to call the Ann Arbor police anonymous tip line at 734-794-6939 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800 SPEAK UP (773-2587)
