Orange County authorities say a man who complained about someone urinating outside a bar was deliberately run down and killed by a carload of people Saturday morning.
The 28-year-old Oxnard man was struck around 1:30 a.m. after leaving a bar in Stanton.
Sheriff's spokesman Jim Amormino says the man had left the bar with some friends when he saw someone urinating outside and words were exchanged.
The other person was in a group that got into a car. The driver then deliberately ran down the Oxnard man, dragging him 75 yards, circled around and hit him again.
Someone also grabbed the man's girlfriend by the hair as the car went by. She was slammed to the pavement and had cuts and bruises.
Authorities are now looking for a newer Honda with fancy rims, tinted windows and a "1G" or "1Q" in the license plate. It may have front end damage.
