A 30-year-old man is lucky to be alive after he and his wife were assaulted by up to six occupants of a Hummer vehicle as they stood admiring it in inner-Melbourne early today.
Police said the man and his 32-year-old wife were admiring a silver-coloured Hummer - a large, US-style four-wheel drive - outside Kings car park on Flinders Lane, between Spencer and King streets, about 5.30am (AEST) when they were set upon.
The man said "I love your car" before he was attacked by up to six people, with at least one brandishing a metal bar.
"The victim was severely beaten and left unconscious," Detective Senior Constable Brett Hampson said.
He was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital with sever head injuries and blood loss.
The victim's wife was also taken to hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
"We're very concerned about this assault. It was unprovoked and severe and extremely brutal," Det Sen Const Hampson said.
"The male's very lucky to still be alive."
Det Sen Const Hampson said the couple had been out drinking and were returning to their car with a friend when they were attacked.
Police are investigating whether a red sports car, which left the car park at the same time as the Hummer without rendering assistance, was also involved.
They say they are confident the Hummer - whose design is based on the US army's Humvee vehicle - will be found.
"It's a very distinctive car and we'll be very confident that we'll locate these people that have assaulted this male in such a bad way," Det Sen Const Hampson said.
The driver of the Hummer is described as being aged in his 30s, of Caucasian appearance, and was wearing dark jeans, a black T-shirt and had a tattoo of a cross on his right forearm.
A second offender was of Asian appearance and wearing a green T-shirt.
The silver Hummer had the word "Hummer" written down the side of it in dark writing, police said. -

Crazy people, can't even take a compliment.

those few guys could be doing/having something illegal in the car bah... when you're doing something guilty, then you're always suddenly jumping to conclusions, like if you steal something and a police show up at your house, you think he is going to get you, but in the end just wanna ask for donations.
-
wtf is wrong with those guys? its a compliment and they beat the fk out of them?
so we should have bad comments then ? -
must be a stolen car.

If the beaten chap was a gang member, the Hummer will have bullet holes by the weekend.

This is call beating people out of the fun of it..
This world is full of sh it people..They see u can eat..they eat. Especially when they in a group..
So dun be weak guys...Bulk up and learn some moves..
When they decided to attack you..no matter what u going to say to them is useless..So dun think ur going to pull some reasoning words and hope they sympathise with you..And later walking away smiling at yourself that ur one smart alex..Thats not going to happen manz
If a group of guys suddenly walk toward you..you better make sure u fight dirty..Hit them hard..Kick them in the groin..use pencil stab them in the eye..punch punch kick kick..Slash them with a knife if u have one watever..Target all your energy into the leader of the pack if ur are confident..Once the leader is down the rest will run off like a kuniang.
But if you saw someone pull a parang toe come out ah..Angmoh they call it machete...U better run for your fu ck life...And please run into a open public area ok..Dun be a cu cu and run into a dead end track.
Tats it..Dun take my posting seriously..Im writing this for entertainment purposes nia..
Bye bye -
This is crazy...but then have to wait for the other side of the story. The victims stated that it was unprovoked attack. But will not know for sure until the humvee owners give their side of the story.
