HUNTINGTON BEACH (CBSLA.com) — Authorities say a Good Samaritan who tried to intervene in a fight between two groups of teens in Huntington Beach Saturday evening, was nearly beaten to death by the same teens who attacked him with their skateboards.

Police say 40 teens attacked the 25-year-old man — about 7:50 p.m. — at Murdy park in Huntington Beach. The man is in extremely critical condition.

Officials said the man’s girlfriend saw the teens involved in an altercation.

After the girlfriend tried to intervene, the crowd turned on her. She got away but returned with her boyfriend. Police said the teens than turned on him.

The man tried to flee to a nearby laundromat where the attack continued, said police.

Huntington Beach Police said on their Facebook page that four juveniles were arrested for attempted murder. All four are currently on probation for other crimes and have been taken to Orange County Juvenile Hall, said authorities.

Police said more arrests could come soon.

The Good Samaritan was transported to UCI Medical Center where he underwent emergency surgery.

KCAL9′s Tom Wait spoke to witnesses who observed the brutal beating.

Sandy Nguyen, who works at the nail salon two doors down from Surf City Coin Laundry, said, “I was so scared. So I locked the door. They used their skateboards to beat the boy in the head.”

Witness Erik Yslas saw a group of kids run through the parking lot. “I saw four people running into the parking lot, didn’t know what was going on at first. I spin to my left and saw all the cops right there.”

Dave Sumner said, “It looked like every cop in Huntington Beach was here, seemed like. At 11:30 [p.m.] there were still a lot of cops all over the parking lot.”

The victim’s identity is being withheld while police continue the investigation, said the Huntington Beach authorities.

Skateboarding is primarily a white activity.

Nope, not woman haters. But not dancing like a puppet on a string for them either. She decides HE needs to go stop the riot after she couldn’t.
He shoulda smirked and said, “yeah sure baby, im gonna go get a coke first,, K?”.
The worst thing in the world you can do is to run do exactly what she says.

If your family is is danger,,one thing. But strangers participating in a riot willingly? If she throws retarded tests like that at you, you are facing a lifetime of misery. Today its the gang fight. In ten years, you cant buy a boat, etc,, because her friend or relative needs your saved up fund “X” for dire need “Y”.

More better to bail at the first hint of that mentality.

““Chicks love doing this. Arguing with the Hells Angels at the next table, then looking at YOU to go fight.”

Oh,, and God help the hapless BF if he happens to be a Soldier, Marine, off duty cop, taking karate lessons, has a concealed gun, etc etc. Because the chick will almost always screech this fact out loudly (so the guys at the next table will know how badly they are about to get beaten).

Ive seen it, many times. Don’t blame the messenger.

I responded to your post, which focused only on the eviiiilllll woman and not on the thugs who beat up her boyfriend by referring to the woman and you take that as a triumph? Okaaaaayyyyyyy
I had already referred to the ‘boys’ as hyenas because I loathed what they did to that man. But, in your world, when I responded to your warped scenario re the woman, I focus on the woman to an unseemly degree- when you do it by blaming her and implying she’s a slut, you are just being considerate.
You wanna hate women - even an anonymous one who is at the moment likely praying that her boyfriend will have enough pain killers to keep him from agony and that he will pull through - then reason and logic won’t deflect you for a moment.

I feel the couple was victimized by hyenas.
I kinda doubt that women universally have the power to make a man take on 40 yutes. More likely, a man says “What? Are you ok? You said there were gangs about to fight? Let’s get out of here.” I guess I have never dated men who could be ordered to take on 40 youths.
We don’t know how it transpired yet. Did he think he was approaching groups of harmless children? Did he have an adrenalin surge when she arrived badly shaken and charge out there? I don’t know women who want their loved one to take on gangs by themselves.

“A guy is a blithering idiot to go fight because a chick goads him into it.”
So blame the girl first, then the guy. Let the yutes off the hook. Well - I can’t say I agree. He may have heard that some boys chased her and went to check it out - but as soon as he was seen he was ‘target zero’. Actually once they chased her, the couples was going to have a hard time walking to their car unharmed. Really - most of us aren’t trained to handle 40 attackers. But - if you need to hate women then go for it - facts won’t slow you down.

...this may be a somewhat different crowd of "teens" than what you are visualizing.

Yeah, those darned skateboarders. When my boys were young they'd sometimes hang out in packs downtown (small town, ten blocks from home) and terrorize old people by passing close to them at high speed. When the cops chased them off they wanted shirts that said "skateboarding is not a crime" because they were being "picked on". We had to confiscate their boards a few times. Thank heaven they outgrew it without arrests, injuries or actually hurting anyone else.

there were 40 of these punks and 10 rounds min to make sure they're all down, you'd need a 400 round magazine!

Need more range time if that's your knockdown ratio.

Using the NYC police standard ~ min 10 rounds.

Myself, I'd be converting a standard pressure cooker to handle some fireworks and nails ~ get 'em all!

I may be wrong but the wy I read it the woman intervened first and they “turned on her”. They have have struck her and thus he felt compelled to go out there and find out who hit her and retailiate. Who really knows? With those kind of numbers I would have just got the hell out of there.

First time ever visting the USA (in 1985 I think it was) I spent a few days in SF. As always when coming to a new town I bought a map so I could get a feel of the town and go for a walk-about. But unlike any map that I ever bought before, this had a very peculiar statement on the right hand bottom.

In essence people using this map were warned that it was unsafe to walk around in the city, and it was suggested instead of walking one should use the collective transport system or taxis.

Below this strange statement the company producing the map had added that they were forced by the Mayor Ms Feinstein to print this advice/warning on all their maps. However, in their opinion it was not up to the Mayor to decide what to print or not to print but to work to make it safe and secure to walk about in SF at all times.

I thougt that was very well stated and I used the map to guide me as I walked around in the town. I understood that Ms Feinstein was a total moron and ought not to be elected to anything apart from possibly junior-substitute dog-catcher.

Unfortunately the good inhabitants of San Fransisco /California have not come to the same conclusion - yet!

No question. We now need skateboard control. Skateboards have no place on the streets. Not only do they function as a weapon but also can double as a getaway mechanism following an assault.

So the two groups of teens were in some sort of argument, and the man's girlfriend took it upon herself to get involved, resulting in the two groups of teens going after the couple.

Guy REALLY needs to dump this girlfriend (provided he survives).

What a sad, awful testament to the pack mentality groups of “yutes” have today.

Chicks love doing this. Arguing with the Hells Angels at the next table, then looking at YOU to go fight. Just watch,,he’s in extremely critical condition, probably brain damaged,, etc. So she’ll have to “get on with her life”. Inside of 6 weeks she’ll be telling the next guy about how her ex-bf was a crime victim and is in a rehab center for a few years now learning to talk again. (as she’s getting dressed to leave the new guy’s place in the morning.)

I know a girl like that (daughter of friend). She was at a street party with her boyfriend, everybody drinking, BF decides to call it a night, she decides to stay. She gets into an argument with another drunk at the party, slaps him, he slaps he back. She goes screaming back to her BF, waking him up from a drunk stupor, screaming she's been assaulted. He goes down with a knife and cuts the guy who slapped her. He goes to prison, she "goes on with her life".

Many years ago, I was walking a friend's girlfriend home late at night. As we pass this black guy waiting for the bus, she remarks (loudly) "there's too many n*****s around here". I turn and tell her "If he decides to beat the crap out of you, I will not lift a finger to stop him". She got quiet at that. And I was not kidding, I would have walked away and let whatever was going to happen, happen.
