      XPost: alt.politics.clinton, alt.america, alt.gossip.celebrities       XPost: alt.fan.sean-hannity              BOWIE, Md. — Police in Bowie, Maryland say they just arrested a       suspect in a violent attack that they believe was racially       motivated.              Bowie police detained 26-year-old Marcus Crews in D.C. Thursday       afternoon.              The attack happened Wednesday in the middle of a Giant       supermarket on Annapolis Road. The suspect allegedly attacked a       young, interracial couple, screaming that the Black man was       betraying his race by dating a White woman.              RELATED: Bowie police investigate hate crime stabbing outside a       Giant grocery store              Police in the Prince George's County suburb said it does not       matter who commits a racist assault, they will not tolerate hate       crime.              "I was just shopping in Giant with my girlfriend," one of the       victims, who wants to be identified by his first name, Avery,       told WUSA9 in an exclusive interview.              Avery is Black, and he said he was shopping on Wednesday morning       with his White girlfriend, when another Black man ran his cart       into him.              "[He] bumped into my cart, bumped into me," Avery said. "I asked       him what his problem was, and he pulled out a knife."              Avery said the man started yelling at him.              "He said I'm a betrayal of my kind for messing with a White       girl," Avery said, which he described as infuriating. "If you       think there's something wrong with somebody for messing with       another race, you're just as bad as the racist people yourself       bro. That's racist."              Police said the attacker then lunged with the knife toward       Avery's girlfriend, and Avery stepped in to protect her.              "He did what I think most of us would like to think we would do       if our significant other was threatened," Bowie Police Lt. John       Knott said. "He stepped in between."              "We wrestled around with it for a while," Avery said. "Then he       stabbed me in my butt. Then he ran out of the store."              The alleged attacker escaped, but police believe they know who       he is. They said he faces assault and concealed deadly weapon       charges, and that they will be consulting with prosecutors on a       hate crime count.              "I haven't seen anything like this in my entire career, which       spans 33 years in Prince George's County," Lt. Knott said.              https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/crime/interracial-couple-       attacked-at-grocery-store-hate-crime-charges-considered/65-       e4fddf28-f1c5-4b59-afe5-c4a31a5e64ca                      --- SoupGate-DOS v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
