Victim mugged for his beer
`Two men left the Northcote Railway Station and were walking east towards Arthurton Road just before 12.30am (AEDT), when three men approached them, a police spokesman said.
One of the trio asked one of the men for a beer, which he was carrying in a plastic bag.
The man handed over the beer but when he refused to hand over more the group surrounded the two men and punched the man not carrying the beer in the face.
The offenders took six cans of beer before fleeing.’
