NBC reports a man named Brandon Michael spotted about six to eight suspects wearing hooded sweatshirts gathering around a smart car parked along his road.

"They looked like they were up to no good," he told reporters. "And sure enough, they huddled around it and lifted it up."

Police found three tipped Smart Cars between Sunday night and Monday morning in different San Francisco neighborhoods.
