Those Dangerous, Scary Black Guys Are At It Again ...
I saw this article this morning:
Betancourt, 22, an avid skateboarder, was found bloodied and disoriented in a downtown parking lot on July 6, inside his sister’s Fiat 500.
His parents found him slumped in the car and took him to Ryder Trauma Center where doctors treated his severe injuries, included a laceration to his head and a fractured orbital bone.
Shortly after he was admitted to the ER, detectives questioned Betancourt, who, according to the original police report, told investigators he was “jumped by 4 to 5 unknown black males.”
His faint answers quickly escalated into a story of a brutal attack, which dominated local media for days. Headlines reported on his recovery and his first steps were televised.
Two days after the attack, Miami police sent out a press release to media outlets with initial information on the incident, saying that “possibly three black men approached the victim in the area of Biscayne Boulevard and Northeast 3 Street and in the midst of the crime, beat him.”

Friday, Betancourt’s mother watched the video of her son slamming into the corner of the pillar on the eighth floor of a garage on Northwest 12the Street and 14th Avenue. He lost control on a sharp turn and met the wall with force.
As the skateboard flew from under him, he fell to the ground, staying motionless for about five minutes. Another video camera from the indoor garage’s elevator showed a crippled Betancourt with the skateboard under his arm as he rode down to the first floor, leaning limply against the wall.
