CHATSWORTH, Calif. - A Chatsworth man said he was attacked by looters in Van Nuys Monday afternoon.
Jorge Games said he was driving on Van Nuys and Sylvan when he came across a group of looters.
"All of the sudden some looters started crossing the street causing mayhem. I looked at them and I said 'hey excuse me can you guys move,' and one of the looters exchanged words with me, and I said whatever. They just turned their anger against my truck. They busted out all my windows while I was inside my truck. I was going hysterical like what are you guys doing. I could not move," said Games.
Games said he could not drive out of the area because his vehicle was surrounded.
"They decided to get me out of my truck and take a two-by-four, pull me out, and all I remember was waking up on the floor unconscious. Somebody was getting me up saying you gotta get up, you gotta get up sir," he said.
He said he decided to drive out of the area and drove up to Van Nuys and Vanowen Street where a group of LAPD officers were stationed.
"I asked the Los Angeles Police Department to please render some help, and they saw that I was bleeding. The officers looked at me and just waved me on saying get out of here. I said no, I'm not getting out of here, I need a rescue unit, I'm bleeding. Not one officer out of those 30 officers came over to me and asked me if I was OK. Is this what it's come to for innocent people who are getting hurt out there and now can't depend on the police department to help them or assist them?" said Games.
In that area, a FOX 11 news crew was recording, and saw Games in a disoriented state before he left. He drove himself to the hospital.
"I was there overnight. They wanted to keep me overnight, but I wanted to go home. I was so upset. I was so angry," he said.
Games said he is disappointed with LAPD, but is a supporter of police because his wife was a sergeant with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
"We're law enforcement pro and now it just puts a real sour taste in our mouth after this incident. They [LAPD] don't care. They proved it and once you feel that, once it's happened to you, you will understand what the feeling is like, abandonment of safety," said Games.
Games said he is grateful to be alive after the incident.
"I'm very lucky that they didn't use that sledgehammer that they used on my truck on my head, I'm very lucky," he said.
The LAPD PIO said the department is investigating any incidents of alleged police misconduct, but it is difficult to verify the account with the badge numbers of the officers.
Games made a GoFundMe page to help with his medical bills and expenses to fix his truck after the attack.
