A 23-year-old man was knocked unconscious and kicked while on the ground by a group of teens while waiting for bus and Detroit police are looking for the suspects.

At around 3:30 p.m. Oct, 10 in the 17100 block of E. Warren on the city's east side, the man was sitting on a bench at a bus stop when a group of teens walked up to the area.

Detroit police said one teen struck the victim on the side of his head, knocking him unconscious and two other teens kicked him while he was on the ground. The suspects then fled the area.

The man was treated for non-life threatening injuries.

WDIV-TV (Channel 4) said the man is a music teacher at a nearby preparatory academy. He was at the bus stop because school had just ended for the day. He said he has since left town and is trying to understand why he was attacked.

"I'm still, like ... it's hard to grasp everything that happened all at once. Every time I see the video it traumatizes me a bit," he told the TV station.

Detroit police ask for the public's assistance in identifying and locating those involved in the assault. Anyone with information is asked to call the department's 5th Precinct Detective Unit at 313-596-5540 or CRIMESTOPPERS at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.
