 But upon arrival, Kang took an Uber to a hotel in Fernandina Beach, about 35 miles north of Jacksonville, and then bought a hammer at a local hardware store. He went to the victim's house, which was unlocked, around 2 a.m. The victim was walking out of his bedroom where he was confronted by Kang, who hit him on the head with the hammer. The two struggled as the victim called for help. His stepfather responded and helped to restrain Kang until police arrived.
