KAILUA-KONA, Hawaii - A tourist from Connecticut reported he was mugged twice within five minutes while walking Alii Drive, Big Island police said.

Derrick Schull, 50, was walking south on the oceanside-street at 3:25 a.m. Wednesday when a dark-colored sport utility vehicle pulled alongside him. Three men in their 30s got out, forced Schull to give up his wallet and drove away, police said.

Five minutes later, Schull reported that four males, including two juveniles, emerged from some bushes and demanded his wallet. When he told them he had no wallet, two of them started punching and kicking him, police said.

Schull suffered minor injuries and refused medical attention

Guess you never saw the movie "Papillon".

He could have hid his money where Dustin Hoffman kept it in the movie.

Who the hell would walk on the streets that late in a city they don't know? (glad to hear he's okay, but he should have been more prudent) Also, did this guy break any world records for getting robbed twice within 5 minutes?

Anyone remember Joe's Apartment? Jerry O'Connell's character Joe gets robbed 3 times in 2 minutes when he gets in NY. This story reminds me of that.

Talk about bad luck. Glad he's OK.

Guy encountering 2nd group of robbers:
'I was just robbed 5 minutes ago. Seriously. THEY took my wallet.. here, take my watch. They didn't take that.'
