Video showed Pang's father going to his trunk when a person wearing a hoodie and a mask approached.
While he does not know why his father was targeted, Pang told NBC 6 a possible hit or a hate crime cannot be taken off the table. Pang's father is a Spanish-speaking Asian immigrant.
"There was no robbery," Pang said. "He didn’t steal his wallet, he didn’t steal any money, he didn’t steal any jewelry, he didn’t steal his car. It was just someone that wanted to hurt him."
The family said they reported the incident to Miami-Dade police.
