A Melbourne father was beaten unconscious outside his home after he tried to stop three men from graffitiing his windows.
Murray Bransgrove, 51, was left bleeding and unresponsive on the road on Gilbert Street in Preston on Tuesday night, with his partner fearing he was going to die after the vicious attack.
He had gone outside his house to confront three men who were tagging his windows when he was attacked.
“I got turned upside down and hit my head on the road and they started kicking me in the head,” he told 9News.
“I was out of it at that stage.”
His 14-year-old son and partner Kerry were home at the time and witnesses the attack.
