Four men fatally beat a man they caught trying to break into a truck on Thursday could face murder charges, police said.

Police said the four men are construction workers who apparently had spotted a man breaking into one of their pickups.

"They proceeded to beat, kick and punch the suspect and pull him away from the vehicle," Senties said. "They were still here when the officers arrived."

Detectives will be checking security cameras in the shopping center.

An autopsy for the dead man has been ordered.

The article says pretty clearly that they "beat and kicked" the alleged robber. The autopsy will provide more information along with any footage from security cameras.
