紐約佈克林區發生了被視為武漢肺炎引起的仇恨罪案。一個乘客在地鐵上﹐用空氣清新噴霧器﹐噴向一個亞洲人﹐意圖把他驅趕。襲擊者是一個非洲裔人。他向站在旁邊的亞洲人大喊大罵﹕『叫他走開﹗』
當一個乘客問為什麼他要亞洲人走開﹐襲擊者答說『他站得太過接近我』。
眼見亞洲人沒有走開﹐他就拿起一瓶空氣清新噴霧器噴向亞洲人。他繼續說﹐『你還不滾開﹐我就打你你快滾好了。』
BROOKLYN, New York, (ANN): In what is being reviewed as a
coronavirus-related hate crime, a train commuter tried driving an Asian
passenger away by spraying what appeared to be an air freshener in the United
States.
An African-American passenger in Brooklyn, New York City, began shouting
and cursing because an Asian man was standing close to him, a certain Doris Au uploaded a video on her
Facebook account last Wednesday, March 4.
The two were shown
standing in the moving train in the first clip. The Asian man quietly leaned
against the subway door, while the angry passenger moved around the relatively
empty train.
“Tell him to move!” the black man, wearing a gray-and-white jacket, said.
When a fellow passenger off-camera asked him why the Asian man needed to
move, the aggressive passenger replied: “Because he’s standing right f*cking
next to me!”
After the Asian passenger refused to respond, the black man grabbed a
purple bottle and began spraying it right in front of his fellow train rider. The disinfectant was believed to be a
Febreze bottle, the New York Post reported on March 5. He then leaned in an
adjacent door facing the Asian man.
“You don’t want to move I’ll fight you. You better move, ” the black man
repeated.
The Asian man
confronted the angry passenger in a second video. The black man was already
seated when the Asian asked: “Why is that? Why can’t I sit next to you?” Before
things could escalate, a woman pulled the Asian man away.
Chinese-American
actress Celia Au condemned the angry passenger’s “racist” behavior on her
Twitter account last Thursday, March 5.
