Horrific Racial Attack Caught on Camera in Bournemouth
A woman in her 40s was subjected to a vile racial attack near One Stop on Jewell Road, Bournemouth, last Friday at around 4.30pm.
Beer Poured Over Victim and Her Dog
The victim was targeted by a group of two men and a woman who bombarded her with racist abuse. One of the men even poured beer over her shoulder and leg — soaking both her and her small dog. The group followed her inside the shop, where the two men continued their racial abuse and shoved her.
Police Urge Public to Help Identify Suspects
“This was understandably a distressing incident for the victim,” said Police Constable Andrew Kelly of Bournemouth police. “We take reports of hate crime very seriously and are exploring all lines of enquiry. We’ve now released a CCTV image of two men we want to identify and urge anyone who recognises them to come forward.”
