A teenage girl allegedly assaulted an Asian woman on a Manhattan subway train and attacked a witness who was recording the incident, possibly motivated by hate.
A teenage girl allegedly slugged an Asian woman riding a Manhattan subway train with her family last week and attacked a witness who was recording her behavior in what police are investigating as a possible hate crime.
The trio of girls were shouting and cursing at the family before one allegedly pulled the hair of the 51-year-old mom, punched her repeatedly and made an “anti-ethnic remark” towards the victim, who is Asian, police said. “It was just insult, after insult, after insult. And, finally, my husband felt like he needed to step in and so he was like, ‘Can you use some better words besides those?'” Young told the station.
The girls then realized they were being recorded by Lin and that’s when the teen whom police are looking for stormed over and allegedly pummeled her.
