SAN ANTONIO \u2013 A father-son trip to San Antonio for the NBA Finals turned violent when the two New York Knicks fans said they were attacked outside their downtown hotel.<\/p>\n
Investigators are asking for the public\u2019s help in identifying the men involved in the alleged assault. <\/p>\n
The attack happened during the weekend of June 13 as the father and son were returning to their hotel near N. St. Mary\u2019s and E. Houston streets. <\/p>\n
They had traveled to San Antonio to watch Game 5 between the Spurs and the Knicks. The son said they were caught off guard as they approached the hotel.<\/p>\n
\u201cPeople came from back and started punching us,\u201d he said. \u201cMy dad went down first. I don\u2019t know if he was punched and fell or if he was pushed down and hit his head on the ground, but that\u2019s where the main injury came from.\u201d<\/p>\n
Images from cameras outside the hotel show at least two men whom police are trying to identify. <\/p>\n

One image shows the back of a man with a visible tattoo on his arm. Investigators hope someone recognizes the man\u2019s build or tattoo and can provide information.<\/p>\n
KSAT obtained the images from the victims, who said they received them from detectives. The son said he wants those responsible to be held accountable.<\/p>\n
\u201cI want accountability for them,\u201d he said, adding that he hopes the case makes others \u201cthink before we act.\u201d<\/p>\n
San Antonio police are also looking for a vehicle believed to be connected to the suspects. It is described as a newer-model red, four-door Chevy truck with upgraded trim and black side steps. Investigators said it could be a Silverado or Trail Boss.<\/p>\n
