CLEVELAND (AP) _ Even by tough, urban-crime standards it was a grisly attack: Up to 15 people chased a man, then kicked and beat him to death on the street. Before police arrived, one attacker urinated on the victim's head.



When the crime-hardened neighborhood awoke later that morning, two people reported a man lying on the pavement, his clothes being dragged off by his assailants.



"You got a male being assaulted by 15 other guys. He's laying on the street," one 911 caller said.



The April 27 attack on Charles Gooden Jr. happened in the most murder-ridden neighborhood in one of the nation's poorest cities. But it was also within a 10-minute drive of the city's skyscrapers, sports venues and tourist attractions.



Three suspects have been charged with aggravated murder. Police have not mentioned a motive, but they expect more arrests.
