A disturbing video<\/a> posted on Reddit<\/a> of a man getting knocked out and robbed by a small group of people in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood Sunday has gone viral.<\/p>\n

In the video shot at Cal Anderson Park<\/a>, one man is taken down to the ground in a chokehold. Moments later, you see a group of people surround him and start attacking the man performing the chokehold. They start kicking and punching him in the head until he is knocked out cold.<\/p>\n

What started the fight remains somewhat of a mystery. According to comments online, the fight stemmed from a woman’s dog being off leash and trying to eat people’s food.<\/p>\n

The Seattle Fire Department<\/a> sent the following response to KIRO 7<\/a> about the incident:<\/p>\n

That response came at the request of Seattle Police for an incident that matches your description. However, the patient declined medical care as our crews arrived on scene.<\/p>\n
