CLEARLAKE, Calif. (AP) — A white man in California was charged Tuesday with a hate crime for stabbing a black man with a machete after yelling racial slurs, the district attorney's office said.

Police in Clearlake, about 80 miles (128 kilometers) north of San Francisco, went to an apartment complex Saturday night after people reported someone yelling racial slurs in the parking lot and later attacking the victim. The victim, whose name and age were not released, was cut in the shoulder and was seriously injured, police said.
 
After the attack, Anthony Hammond, 34, went back into his apartment and an hourslong standoff, with Hammond hiding in his refrigerator at one point, began, police said.

He eventually came out and was arrested. Police later found the machete in his apartment.

I hope he's in it for the next 20 years at least. Keep his violent ass away from decent people like that man he attacked.

Reminds me of that great intellect Dylann Roof, another prime example of the master race!

Looks like he's been drooling on his T-shirt. What class!
