I heard this story and would like to know what you guys would do in this situation.

A man had his son chased home by a gang of teenage kids. He went out to defend his son. The kids started getting in his face telling him that they were 16yrs old, and that if he hit them, he would go to prison for striking a minor. The kids were very adamant about letting him know their age. None of the kids were 18yrs old, or older. The kids were very aggressive, and started pushing him around. He was practically surrounded as there were about 10 or so kids, so he couldnt just turn around and walk away. He stood his ground. Also, this was not the type of neighborhood where the cops would be to his rescue in seconds. So, What would you do in this situation?
