Teleport when hit by mob

Hello I am trying to work on a code that when a person is hit by a mob, they will teleport to a region in a set x,y,z range! This is what I have so far:

Code:

import java.util.Random;
import org.bukkit.Location;
import org.bukkit.entity.Entity;
import org.bukkit.entity.Player;
import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.entity.EntityDamageByEntityEvent;


public class MobsEvents implements Listener{



@EventHandler

public void EntityHitEntityEvent(EntityDamageByEntityEvent event){

Entity damager=event.getDamager();
Random random = new Random();
Location teleportLocation=null;
Entity player=event.getEntity();

int x = random.nextInt(2888) + 1;
int y = random.nextInt(2) + 1;
int z = random.nextInt(-328) + 1;

teleportLocation=newLocation(player.getWorld(),x,y,z);


if(!(damager instanceof Player)){


player.teleport(newLocation(player.getWorld(),
teleportLocation.getX(),
teleportLocation.getY(),
teleportLocation.getZ()));

}

}

}

I would appreciate some help or just feedback on ways I could go along getting this fixed.

 

the code is not working. When the mob hits me it just gives me damage instead of teleporting me into the random set coordinates. Also, I do not know how to make a set range to allow the teleportation to work when a mob hits me. I have a maze and I want to get teleported randomly within the first half of it when I am hit by a mob.

@timtower I think it does not work because of how the Player player is an entity and how the the if statement work together.

@timtower my z location is negative and the error I get it inside the console but my code is not giving me an error.
