Police say at 1:34 a.m., they were called to the scene of an injured man early in the 2800 block of Preston Avenue South.

Officers found a 29-year-old man with a non-life-threatening head injury.

He told police he was in the middle of having a cigarette when a large group of men approached him. He says he was then assaulted by a pair in the group. The man said one of them had a knife, but did not use it. They took his wallet and were last seen heading west bound on Wilson Crescent.

All suspects are described as being between 16 and 20 years old.  The man says he did not recognize any of the group members.

A K-9 unit was used unsuccessfully in an attempt to find the suspects.
