At around 7.50pm on Tuesday a 32-year-old Derrimut man alighted from the train at Sunshine Station and walked through the underpass to his car which was parked in the Sun Crescent car park.
As he was entering his car he was confronted by a gang of four men aged in their late teens to early 20s.
When the victim refused to hand over his phone, the men began punching him repeatedly to the head and face.
When he attempted to escape another four men appeared at the scene.
