July 20, 2012|By Mary Gail Hare, The Baltimore Sun

A 33-year-old man thwarted a carjacking Thursday in Glen Burnie, but remains hospitalized with serious injuries incurred during a beating, Anne Arundel County police said.

The victim left a restaurant in the 800 block of Aquahart Road, near Ritchie Highway at about 11:30 p.m. He engaged the remote start as he approached his vehicle, a Chevrolet Avalanche. He was hit from behind, knocked to the ground and beaten and kicked by five men, police said.

One suspect entered the car, but the victim was able to drag him out and get into the car himself. The men fled the scene as the victim drove himself to the Baltimore Washington Medical Center, police said.
