An 80-year-old Asian man was assaulted, pepper-sprayed and robbed in his home in Rowland Heights, California, in what police say was a follow-home robbery.
What happened: On June 4, the man, identified only as Steve, had reportedly just returned from a local 99 Ranch Market to buy carrots for his dog at around 1:30 p.m. when a pair of thieves attacked him in his garage in the 2000 block of Ravenfall Ave.
The suspects pushed him, pepper-sprayed him and demanded his $2,500 watch.
"My watch is difficult to take off, so I say, ‘All right, I'll do it for you,’” Steve told NBC Los Angeles.
