Man Beaten In Apparent Hate Crime In University Heights
Group Threatened To Kill Man, Fled In SUV
SAN DIEGO -- A man was beaten just outside his University Heights apartment by a group of five men who believed he was from the Middle East, San Diego police said Thursday.
The victim was trying to park when the assailants, all white men, threw a beer bottle and shattered his car window just after 11 p.m. Wednesday, Sgt. Rich Nemetz said.
The assailants then knocked down the victim as he got out of his car, kicking him, yelling racial slurs and telling him to go back to Iraq, Nemetz said. The victim is of Portuguese descent.
The men took the victim's shoes and fled in a black SUV, threatening to return and kill him, Nemetz said.
The attackers remained at large Thursday, Nemetz said.
