FBI investigates reported assault on Black man as hate crime

Vauhxx Booker, a local civil rights activist and member of the

Chris Bavender, an FBI public affairs officer in Indianapolis, declined to immediately comment on the investigation.“I’m sad that this happened, honestly,” Booker said. “I just wanted to have a good time with some friends.” Police Cpt. Ryan Pedigo told The Associated Press that the confrontation happened near the Monroe County Courthouse in downtown Bloomington on Monday evening.

It's JULY 12TH!!!!

People think the most racist and hateful states are somewhere far away. It’s in Mike_Pence state where hatred runs the government. Look at Bloomington and look at the leader CITYOFCARMELIN worse racial disparity anywhere in the country because of jimbrainard Carmel police.

I have yet to see you cover the old white lady struck by the black man, or the white man beaten by blacks in the store parking lot, or the 12 year old white street performer attacked by a grown black man, or the white truck driver pull out of his truck and beaten by blacks.....

A video? Let's see it.

Where’s the FBI investigations of these mobs beating up white ppl. WTF Is going on ppl.

Good! Should be a quick investigation, since it’s all on video! HateCrime Neanderthals

And what about all, literally all of the black on white crime that goes on every week!

This is horrifying! Law enforcement FAILURE, too!

tweetMalena this is one from the video

Reading the article, I'm assuming there are 2 separate incidents. 1 involving the man being put up against a tree, and another where the driver of a red car decided to drive off, while some fool chose to put herself in front of the car and another tried grabbing the door. 🤔

Why are these videos always in the middle of an incident without any context? Not a fan of assault regardless just context matters.

Pretty disgusting but why haven't you been reporting on all of the other assaults that have been taking place?

JFC

But yet no video of EITHER posted and nobody “found”.

morgfair It's an open carry state with permit. Be prepared.

get em

This is getting old, mainly because I’ve seen a thousand videos of black punks beating up old white people and not a word.

I watched the entire series of videos and it was so creepy! I have no doubt that if the man had been alone he would have been lynched. Very scary isolated area with an angry group! What the hell

never happened

God bless the FBI

This is where BLM should march.

Bubba and Jussie will represent these men in court. You people probably think Star Wars was real because it was filmed. Thousands of videos of UFOs, I don't see you people protesting their rights.

Hateful people like this are obviously Trump supporters. Consider this when your neighbor tells you that they’re voting for Trump. And, then think of all the black and brown soldiers who have given their life defending this Country against foreign enemies.

What about the 8 year old Black girl in Atlanta?

This is another hoax

Where the hell is Dr. Phil!? He needs a primetime special to psychoanalyze racist white people who have really become unhinged. They need help - asap.

Why don’t you guys report on the black on white crime and racism against whites?

Fake news I’m sure

Let's see how fast and how forcefully our Indiana Republicans (deplorables) respond. GovHolcomb ToddYoungIN SenatorBraun

kcmohondro The words 'Get a noose' have one meaning. And in a more civilized place, is probably a hate crime on it's own.

This is America

This makes my blood boil. Charge: Attempted murder Sure as Trump is president these thugs would have hung this man. If it weren't for other guys & girl moving thugs out these men would have killed him. FBIIndianapolis if a man held a gun to my head Russian roulette

And? Of course it’s a hate crime!

Everyone in that video needs to be prosecuted to the full extent of the law. This was horrific.

Ok, how about the poor Macy’s employee?

Don’t see any articles on all the white people being beat up by blacks...or does that not support the agenda?

What's the status if the countless assaults by black BLM activists on whites, while screaming racial slurs at them? Tell me again about white privilege with the justice system.

There are videos bouncing around which doesn’t show the individual that is supposed to have been assaulted which makes it questionable. Any related irrefutable evidence being presented? Otherwise alleged.

Southern Indiana still racist? Thought that scum was cleared out years ago. Guess I'm wrong.

Good, it serves them right. I hope the FBI put the fear of God into them. And was their dog leaving with the Black man's group? If so, that's pretty hilarious.

He’s lying. A statement analyst will point out all his lies and there will be no charges.

Whitey getting some revenge for the last few weeks of violence

Good. Hope they all go to jail and get the worst experiences of their lives. It’s the only way they’ll learn

Hate Crime: An offense already proscribing a penalty upon conviction, but a more severe penalty is imposed since it was committed while entertaining thoughts or opinions of which the government disapproves. Slippery slope anyone?

Good, because the goddamned local pigs ain't doing a goddamned thing about it.

saw the video - quintessential white trash

What is it going to take to get the word 'alleged' added to these at least pretending to have journalist integrity?

No surprise. There may be more of this 😔

Bubba Smollet 3.0 here we come.

BS !!!! BubbaSmollett

About damn time. Now throw them in prison for a hate crime and attempted murder.

Whites are extremely racist

This is bait. Used to think this was beneath the AP, but to go with a nonstory like this just for those sweet blm clicks. Embarrassing.

Sounds smollspicious.

This is home of the KKK. These bigots will hide each other. Trump is causing this kind of activity to happen in this nation. Come on people were better than this.

Are we really going to do this again?

my feed is full of videos of unprovoked blacks viciously attacking whites and no one is mentioning 'hate crime' there

PCS_CLUB

If a black man assaults a white person is that a hate crime?

How about the FBI investigate the assassination of Guillén from the military base
