PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Police are asking for the public's help in finding a trio of violent robbers, who attacked a Northeast Philadelphia businessman last month.

Investigators have released photos from March 20.

Police say the trio repeatedly kicked the victim and hit him with a handgun.

The robbers stole the man's briefcase, money, gun, and phone.

The victim had to be hospitalized following the attack.
