On Saturday, November 21, 2015, there was a report of a racially motivated assault on a Lewis & Clark student. The Coalition Against Hate Crime wants to form an appropriate response but it is important to point out that this is currently an ongoing investigation.
The Portland Police Bureau has issued a statement and is asking members with any information about this incident is asked to contact Detective Todd Prosser at 503-823-9320, todd.prosser@portlandoregon.gov.
It is the position of the CAHC to aid hate crime victims and their community in a healing response to the corrosive impact of hate crimes and incidents so there will be further communications about this case in the future.
