An 88-year-old store owner in San Jose, California, was attacked during a smash-and-grab robbery of his jewelry store by a mob of thieves wearing hoodies and masks.
The heist at Kim Hung Jewelry occurred on Sept. 5, according to a report from KNTV.
As shown by surveillance footage, more than 15 people climbed out of three separate vehicles in what appeared to be a coordinated heist at the small business.
The thieves smashed glass cases to access the jewelry.
One of the suspects pushed the elderly owner to the ground as he vainly tried to stop his store from being robbed.
He also suffered a stroke during the incident and cut his feet on shards of smashed glass, according to KNTV.
