New details are emerging surrounding the critical injury of a Winnsboro, LA woman set on fire in a city park on Sunday night.
Sharmeka Moffit, 20, is in critical condition at LSU Medical Center in Shreveport.
At a news conference held just before Noon Monday, authorities confirmed Moffitt called 911 around 8 p.m. Sunday from Civitan Park, telling them she had been attacked and burned by three men in white hoodies. Authorities also confirm that there were racial slurs spray-painted on her car, although they did not specify what racial slurs were used.
In addition to Winnsboro Police and the Franklin Parish Sheriff's Department, the Louisiana State Police, the FBI and the State Fire Marshal's Office are investigating. Winnsboro police say they will be tightening security at the park as a result of the incident.
According to KSLA, the story went viral Sunday evening on Twitter and Facebook. Many of the posts speculated the attack was a hate crime. However, the sheriff's office confirmed with KSLA News 12 that Moffitt was not wearing a President Obama t-shirt, despite claims on social media that the t-shirt is what provoked the attack.

Alibi for a crack smoking accident.
They spray paint thing IS suspicious........
Do you remember that girl who threw acid in her own face, and claimed she’d been attacked?
She did it because she was lonely.
Women - some women - will indeed do the craziest, most self-destructive things even if they don’t have a political agenda.
This current incident just reeks of set-up. It’s so obviously a staged event. If it turns out that the girl is genuinely badly burnt (not just a media ‘error’) then either she was set up by a 3rd party - or she set fire to the outside of her clothes and didn’t realise that some man-made fibres can quickly burn out of control.
The silence on the 'Race' aspect, speaks even louder to the truth-that-cannot-yet-be-spoken.
There is a video of this incident.

Fake.
The fire did not go as planned and resulted in real injuries and not superficial ones as planned.
When they find the spray can, her fingerprints will be on it.
KKK? Attacking black women in a park?
Utter nonsense.
Wait until Obozo loses, then the we will see the SHTF.
While I remember, it was Bethany Storro back in 2010.
A self-inflicted hoax that got out of hand. That’s my guess.
Yes, the ‘spray’ aspect is another bad clue; that this is ‘cracked up’. Maybe she - or co-perp - had not yet finished spraying when ‘all hell’ broke loose; when match or hand-torch was lighted - too soon.

The Moffitt’s mother, Edna Moffitt, tells KTBS 3 News that she was told that three white males wearing hoodies jumped out of their vehicle and burned her.
May not be a hoax...we'll see.
There was a white woman in Washington state who threw acid on her face and claimed it was a black attacker.

She confessed to doing it to herself.
Most diversity “hate” crimes are set up by the diversity communist victims for political benefit.
We’ll see.
But sooner or later white racists are going to respond to the racist black mobs for attacking whites, in a tit for tat.
We need a new president who does not feed off race hate and violence for power.
You got that right!
I was sitting on the toilet one time looking at a frizzy on a towl that was hanging on the rack across from me. I reached over and lit it. I planned to pinch it out after it burned. WRONG!
That sucker caught fire like it had been dowsed in gasoline. It scared the crap outta.....well, nevermind that part. I got it out before it caught the house on fire. Wasn't a pretty sight though. I don't do that anymore.
i’d agree.
smells like hoax.
How many of these have we seen that were self inflicted for whatever purposes? Some for sympathy, some for political reasons, and some for possible financial gain.
Remember the Census worker in 2010 that was found dead hanging from a tree with some racist garbage carved on his chest? Hoax / suicide. Dumbass wrote the slurs upside down............
