Etymology: probably from earlier mug to strike in the face, perhaps from 1mug
1 : to assault usually with intent to rob
2 : to attack suddenly : BUSHWHACK <got mugged in the press by his colleagues>
Wondered where this came from. Interesting that it comes from "to strike in the face", and "mugging" (for the camera) also deals with the face...
