A police report initially stated that the incident was being treated as an “anti-white” racial attack, but Capt. Mike Neville subsequently backed off that explanation, asserting that the beating was not a racial attack.
The altercation began in Fountain Square on Saturday night at around 11pm shortly after a music concert and 4th of July fireworks.
The video shows several black teens punching and choking 27-year-old Christopher McKnight, while another individual wearing a red t-shirt appears to be attempting to deter the attackers.
McKnight suffered serious internal injuries and was taken to hospital. Riot police later arrived on the scene and arrested seven young men. Two officers and a bystander were injured during the unrest.

Terrible and if the injured person were any other race than white this would be a hate crime. Can you imagine if it were the other way around?????????????????????????CNN would have breaking news and Al Sharpton would already be marching in the streets.
"white privilege"
White lives don't matter, whites are the only ones a hate crime charge can be levied against, the only ones who are racist and bigots! Where is the 'equal justice under the law'? That to is reserved for certain groups of people and not meant for the 'privileged whites'! As a 'white' person I don't feel like I have equal protection, just the opposite, under attack because I am a caucasin, christian and heretosexual!
No one wants to hold folks accountable for what they do, unless the folks are Asian or Caucasian.
A white man doesn't have a chance in this country anymore.
Maybe a resurgence or a neo-KKK would be in order. One that fought for the white Americans again. One that would only target thugs like this, Muslims and Black Panthers.

You pegged this one right.
This is clearly a hate crime. Where is Mitt Romney? Oh forget Mitt, he is only concerned about banning the Confederate Battle Flag and protecting certain blacks.
Wow. Now you wonder why roof went off. Maybe we can get MLK statues removed and change all his street signs. Idiots better wake up!!! Wake up vote republican.
MSM really means--: Satan and Hillary Clinton's fingerprints have been found at the scene. Along with numerous fatherless welfare babies thugs voter ID cards. All have been found to have connections to funding by the Democratic party, but what difference does it make. A redskins fan carrying a confederate flag was arrested immediately. He is charged with offending the rainbow and he is currently awaiting an executive order to have him deported to IRAN, were All lives matter. Hillary and Satan were released without charges and declined comment per advice from the UN security council...
all blacks love whites, racism is not in their hearts, must have just been a misunderstanding
