A California man died of his injuries when he tried to stop a thief who snatched his laptop from a local Starbucks, according to local reports.

The unidentified victim was working on his computer at an east Oakland branch of the coffee chain Tuesday morning — when someone grabbed the device and ran to a nearby SUV, authorities told KTVU.

It was unclear if a driver was waiting in the car.

The victim briefly struggled with the thief inside the car, a witness named Julie told ABC 7.

“The kid jumped into the car,” said Julie. “It was like Superman-type dive. I mean, he made it pretty far into the car. There was a struggle and I think they pushed him out and then he got dragged.”

Before the SUV sped off, witnesses told the outlet the crime victim — believed to be in his 20s or 30s — grabbed the door handle, and was slammed head-first into a parked car.

“I couldn’t see his face because it was covered with blood,” salon worker Jean Miller told the station. “He was lifeless when I was standing there.”

Two people were arrested after police analyzed local video surveillance, KTVU reported Wednesday. The suspects’ identities were not immediately known.

The man was rushed to a local hospital, where he died of head injuries. The victim also was not immediately identified, pending family notification.
