Florida police searching for young men behind vicious attack on city worker: VIDEO

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. - Police in St. Augustine are searching for a group of young adult males accused of brutally attacking a city worker while he was working earlier this month. 

The incident happened in the early hours of March 3, according to the St. Augustine Police Department. They did not immediately disclose where the attack happened, but it appears to be near the intersection of Cordova Street and Hypolita Street in St. Augustine's historic district.

Police shared video of the fight on social media this week, which shows a group of young adult males ridiculing, kicking and punching a city worker who was wearing a yellow construction vest. There was a group of at least 10 people around the city worker, as seen in the video.

Other young adults seemingly tried to break up the fight, which lasted at least 13 seconds, according to the video footage that begins when the young adult males already had the worker on the ground. The worker was able to get away, but another young male ran after him and allegedly kicked him one more time. The worker then ran away from the scene. 

It remains unclear at this time what injuries, if any, the worker suffered in this incident.
