A Mission man is fighting for his life after being dragged from a car late Monday night.

It all happened on the 1000 block of West 25th Street.

Mission police said an 18-year-old man was home watching TV with his wife when he got a phone call.

Investigators said two friends told the man that they needed to see him.

The man left home but was grabbed by two men in a car.

Police said the men dragged the 18-year-old while driving the car through the streets.

A motive is not clear but the men allegedly let the victim go and sent him flying head first into into the pavement.

Investigators said the 18-year-old is in a local hospital where he remains in the intensive care unit.

Action 4 News will provide more information as it becomes available.
