The NYPD hate-crimes unit is probing a report that a white NYU student killed by a car in Harlem was fleeing a gang of black teenagers screaming "Get whitey!" sources said yesterday. If the report proves true, the violence could turn out to be an eerie replay in reverse of the infamous 1986 Howard Beach murder, where a black man was chased into traffic and killed by a group of white bigots.
The 20-year-old student, John Broderick Hehman, died yesterday, six days after the attack.

black teenagers, white bigots. Is that part of the NY Post style guide?
No hate crime here, nothing to see, move along.
Anybody want to play off the tie?
You said it.
Tribalism is alive and well.
yes Huck , sadly it takes years to change things here in NYC
... this town is crawling with illegals
... an Councilman Charles Barron [D Brooklyn] , former Black Panther , want to give illegals the right to vote[GULP!!]
"The sources said Hehman might have been targeted as a soft mark for robbers after the teenage gang spotted the caring urban-studies major handing pocket change to a wheelchair- bound man near the corner of 125th Street and Park Avenue Saturday night. The gang of youths, some of them as young as 11, had been smoking pot inside a nearby Popeye's fast-food eatery at 8:30 p.m. when they spotted Hehman walking by and then stopping to help the handicapped man."
Civilization is really struggling to survive in our major cities.
This isn't a hate crime. Black people can't commit hate crimes. . .
Thugs that killed this kid are about to take over congress.
John Conyers would spit at the kid as he was bleeding on the road. McKinney would step on him.
This is where Bubba Clinton works and he will be using this area in commercials for hillary rodham's majesty bid.
Bubba will be saying I feel your pain.
This is Bubba's area in Harlem that he speaks so proud of and how we need to be giving affirmative action to these people.
Bubba Clinton will tell you the people of the 125st, same area he has his office are great people who would be succeeding if it wasn't for the white scum out there.
Bubba Clinton for another 8 years. I can see the ads now.
As the Clintons always say you get two for the price of one.
It's ok. It's just black on white crime.
It's kind of pathetic when I'm no more likely to show my face in many parts of this city than in Baghdad.
I've spent a lot of time in New York City. Most of the people are pretty decent, but there are parts of the city where you don't go if you're in your right mind.
Harlem is better than parts of Brooklyn or the South Bronx, but I wouldn't advise strolling around there unless you know what you're doing.
On the other hand, there are parts of Brooklyn where black people don't dare stroll. It is kind of tribal in a way, people automatically defending their turf.
I look forward to the MSM covering this. Sixty Minutes, Dateline, ABC New Special, I'm sure they're all getting in line to investigate. NOT.
Stop persecuting drugs! The War on Drugs is an unmitigated evil! Potheads NEVER do anything bad--they just want to hang out, eat, and pet kittens!!

If were the other way around it wouldn't be 'checking to see IF", it would be cold facts.
well , perhaps there will be video from inside Popeye's
Another example of mindless attack dogs in action. Mobs/gangs, etc. are human garbage. It does not matter their color or their cause. They just love to hate together.
Anyone this side of reality knows the country is full of black racism. The tragedy is that blacks have been encouraged to believe their racism is justified. It isn't, never is. But it's a great tool which the left wing is using to destroy our society.
Perhaps. But Park and 125th is not a normal place for a white NYU student to have "friends". The only reason for any member of civilization to be there after dark is to change from a Metro-North train to the Lexington Ave. subway line, and there's been no mention that the victim was doing that. More likely, he was there to purchase illegal drugs.
125th and Park has changed in recent yeras and lots of students and younger people are moving into that neighborhood as it is somewhat affordable. If he was there to buy drugs, there are plenty of areas around NYU he could've chosen to go to.
Read it here, cuz you won't see it on the mainstream leftist dominated newsentertainment media.
Ever see escape from New York? Maybe that's a hint of what to do with big, corrupt cities.
New York is a hole!
I just remember the huge mural that the black militant put up that was visible from the Metro North stop.
Oddly enough, there are ALOT of students in the area, especially around Lex in the 110s. Most of Harlem's gentrification has occurred farther west, however.
"Ever see escape from New York? Maybe that's a hint of what to do with big, corrupt cities."
I have felt this way since I first saw that movie back when I was a youngster. Just wall off some isolated area and dump all the criminals there to fend for themselves.
This isn't a hate crime. It is a crime of murder, and all the little bastards that did it should be fried, end of story.
Looks like his independent-study efforts in "urban studies" got him up close and personal to the topic and came to a bad end.
Class dismissed.
Hate didn't kill the kid... the liberal parents, teachers, and professors that told the kid not to use common sense did. The kid probably thought he was being all progressive nto to walk around in Sh*t neighborhoods.

That this was even mentioned in a newspaper is usprising. Normally "whites" like this kid are throwaways to PC dogma, perhaps this kid was from some rich family.

No kidding. If it wasn't for that evil pot, these fine citizens wouldn't have missed their Math Club meeting and their afternoon volunteering at the local Senior center.
