A white homeowner in San Jose has been charged with shooting an unarmed Black man as the victim walked to a grocery store from an Airbnb rental, Santa Clara County prosecutors said.

Mark Waters, 66, will be arraigned Monday on charges of felony assault with a semi-automatic firearm resulting in great bodily injury and personal use of a firearm. The district attorney said a hate crime charge may be added to the indictment.

"Everyone should be safe walking to the store," District Attorney Jeff Rosen said in a statement. "We will not tolerate such senseless and violent acts in this county. We wish the victim a speedy recovery and will make sure he receives justice for this brutal assault." Waters shot a 21-year-old at an undisclosed location in San Jose on Oct. 2, prosecutors said. As he crossed the street, prosecutors said Waters came up to him with a handgun.SEE ALSO:

Yet another BS racist tweet from the garbage Bay Area media. What a joke!

Would you have put black homeowner shoots white man? You wouldn't. And we know you wouldn't because we read your headlines all the time. You don't report black perpetrators. If you want to be the journalistic standard try a little integrity and neutrality in your reporting.

1. Why did the home owner shoot the man? 2. So glad to see Rosen and Welsh on top of this. Too bad they aren't as on top of DV. 3. Why is a lady who used her gun to protect herself from some shitty little 14yr old getting any kind of charges at all? Typical CA bullshit.

Did the homeowner identify as white? Did the unarmed man identify as black…or as a man?little presumptive for you make that headline before asking them how they identify.

Send them back to Europe! We don't want anymore crappy Whites.

Do your job and report “black man shoots”

KTVU IS RACIST. CANT JUST TELL A STORY HAS TO START WITH COLOR. FOUL FOUL FOUL BOOOOOO

Oh stop that! hypocrisy on this is so irrelevant, want to make a scandal, black people shoot them selfs everyday, white people them selfs are more harm to them selfs, but the fact you want to reach more publications by the Heather is disturbing.

gaslighting - it's a slow news day

So his motivation for doing it was because the other dude was a black guy? Real nice headline. I’m sure that’s it. Bravo. What a joke. A homeowner shot another (possible homeowner?) on vacation. That’s what happened. You guys are sharks.

Is this real or an attempt at gaslighting

Ktvu is propaganda. Nerdy nobodies who want us to fight each other. They even get the weather wrong. Bing bong

Sad and mad,san jose didnt use to be like this.

If roles were reversed would race be in headline? Maybe we could just go with, “human shoots other human”…

Seems like maybe something is missing from this story?
