CHICAGO — The police here were questioning four people on Wednesday as video circulated online showing a white teenager tied up and beaten as a group of young African-Americans shouted antiwhite messages and insulted President-elect Donald J. Trump.
“It’s sickening,” Superintendent Eddie Johnson of the Chicago Police Department said. “It makes you wonder, what would make individuals treat somebody like that?”
The police said the victim was an 18-year-old man from suburban Chicago who had “mental health challenges” and who had been reported missing. Officers spotted him on Tuesday in a violent neighborhood on Chicago’s West Side and recognized that he was in distress, the police said. They sought treatment for him at a hospital and connected the beating to four people who were taken into custody later that day near where the bloodied man had been found.
A roughly 30-minute video clip shared widely online appeared to show a Facebook livestream of the assault. A group can be seen taunting and physically assaulting a man amid cursing and laughing. Much of the video focuses on one woman as she rambles, at times incoherently.
The video begins with a shot of that woman before turning to the victim, who is seated in the corner of a room with his mouth covered. The woman laughs as two men cut the sleeve of the victim’s shirt. One of the men yells epithets about Mr. Trump and “white people.” Later, a man cuts a patch of hair from the victim’s head, appearing to draw blood in the process.

And they can’t decide whether it was a ‘hate crime’. If our justice dept can’t bring justice in cases like this then justice is going to come to them the hard way.
I don’t have the bandwidth to watch the video but apparently the youtube mirrors I’ve found for the video clock it at 30 minutes.
Facebook apparently let this live stream for half an hour without pause.
I wonder if any of the streamer’s “friends” bothered to register a complaint.
Maybe he “triggered” this response?
It makes you wonder what would cause someone to do this?
8 years of a racist pig and his racist wife in the White House along with racists in the Just US department as well as racists on cable channels better known as Democrat strategists and organizations like Black Lives Matters.
Got it now Chief?
So does this story become ‘fake news’ because they omit the other 2 short videos?
You know the one where they forced him to drink from the toilet?
True.
Yes then, I will call this ‘fake news’.
This wasn't a traffic incident.
These monsters need to be locked up, bail set at a very high amount, charged, and brought to trial.
Zuckerberg and his Snopes embezzling, whore screwing toadie will surely call the story "fake news" any day now.....
Will Wolfie Blitzer loop this video and breathlessly discuss this horrific racist act all day today?
Obamaville
The court needs to make an example of these people. There will be copycats; Stupid people will do anything online for fame. The only way to maybe keep it to a minimum is if these people are slammed hard, something like 10 years in prison.
They LYNCHED him!
The perps should be up on federal charges. But I’ll bet the Feds won’t bigfoot this one...
Nice closing NYT, nice.
This story is horrible and we can’t let it go away. Also, for one, I am sick and tired of reading the upper case “African hyphen American” and lower case “white male”. If I’m white, then he’s black. Maybe it sounds a little trifling, but words have meanings, and I have no doubt it is written that way on purpose.
I hate racism... Oh, that’s right. Black people can’t be racist only white American people can be. Nothing to see here, just another typical Chicago crime, nothing racist about it.
They dindu nuffin. No charges will be filed. Certain colors are provided “get out of jail free” cards, apparently.
