Brutal Attack and Robbery in Downtown Los Angeles
On August 2, 2024, a disturbing incident took place in downtown Los Angeles where a man, Shailoobek Bazarbai Uulu, was brutally attacked and robbed by a group of youths on bicycles. The victim was stopped at a red light at the intersection of Olympic Avenue and Hope Street when the attack occurred.
Violent Encounter and Injuries
According to Uulu, a group of teenagers on bicycles confronted him at the traffic light, and when he tried to pass them, one of them threw a bottle of water into his car. The situation quickly escalated when Uulu got out of his car and was surrounded by about 30 teenagers, leading to a violent attack. The assailants punched and kicked him, resulting in a broken leg and severe cuts and lacerations.
The attack was captured on video by a witness, showing the brutal nature of the assault. Despite several adults trying to intervene, the teenagers continued their violent behavior, stealing items from Uulu’s car and causing extensive damage.

After the incident, Uulu was taken to the hospital where he underwent surgery for his leg injury. The attackers fled the scene before the police arrived, leaving Uulu with significant physical and emotional trauma. Despite the severity of the attack, no arrests have been made, and Uulu is seeking justice for the crime committed against him.
A GoFundMe has been set up to assist Uulu in recovering from his losses, as he faces medical expenses and vehicle repairs. Anyone with information about the incident is urged to contact LAPD Central Station or Los Angeles Area Crime Stoppers to help bring the perpetrators to justice.
