Jump Street

Aurora Ave N probably isn't the safest place to be wandering around at night. Unfortunately, one man learned that the hard way last week after he was jumped by a group of three men.


According to a police report, the victim told police he was walking to a gas station at 112th and Aurora Ave N at about 10:30 pm on March 3rd.


As the man approached the corner of 112th and Aurora, the report says "a group of three males jumped out of the bushes and assaulted him."


The group of men kicked the victim in the knee, knocking him to the ground.


The man got up and hobbled down the street, eventually stopping at a motel, where he asked a manager to call 911.


The man told police he did not know the suspects and "said he had no idea why he was assaulted."


Police asked the man if he thought the woman he was going to meet had anything to do with the assault. He said he was "unsure."


In review: the next time someone asks you to meet them on Aurora in the middle of the night, take Nancy Reagan's advice*:
