Police reviewing video of man attacking Kansas students while shouting ‘Trump’
Source: Kansas City Star
WICHITA – Wichita police are reviewing video from a gas station where two college students say they were attacked by a white man shouting racial epithets and the name of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Lt. Jeff Gilmore says the video provides a view of the weekend altercation that’s being investigated as a potential hate crime. The Wichita Eagle reports that police aren’t immediately able to determine the accused attacker’s identity.
Wichita State University student body vice president Khondoker Usama, who’s Muslim, says he was pushed and that a Hispanic friend was punched and kicked.
A police report says the friend suffered a bruised lip. Usama says a black customer at the gas station also was called a racial epithet.
