LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- A man who was pummeled by a college judo team from Florida when they caught him trying to steal their van was sentenced to 11 years in prison for kidnapping, robbery and carjacking.

Tyrone Jermain Hogan, 20, pleaded guilty and was sentenced Thursday.

Deputy District Attorney Paul Kim said Hogan had just robbed a man of his shoes and carjacked a woman when he encountered the Florida International University judo club at a Hollywood gas station.

Kim said Hogan's carjacking victim had escaped, and he was trying to ditch her car at the gas station when he saw the judo team's van.

Team members said Hogan asked one of them for money before reaching into the van to take the keys.

The club's instructor, Nestor Bustillo, said the students punched Hogan, then held him "like a pretzel on the ground" until police arrived.

The judo club's members were in Los Angeles to teach a self-defense class.

What a Dumbass!
