A motorcyclist has suffered serious burns in an unprovoked acid attack in eastern Victoria.
The 62-year-old Pakenham man was urged to pull over by another man as he travelled along the South Gippsland Highway at Bena on Saturday morning.
The man was pushed down an embankment and attacked by three men who got out of a green sedan, police said.
One of the men squirted acid on the victim, causing severe burns to his eyes, face, chest and legs after burning through his clothes.
He was taken to Dandenong Hospital in a serious condition.

Witnesses told police that shortly before the attack, one of the group had told the victim "we don't like bikies around here".
