TEENAGER STABBED TWICE IN HUNTINGTON BEACH BY 3 SUSPECTS, INCLUDING COP FROM ILLINOIS
Source: KABC
HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. (KABC) -- A teenager was stabbed twice when he and his brother-in-law were walking home in Huntington Beach. They believe they were targeted because they were speaking Arabic.
"Was it like a racial issue? Is it because we were speaking Arabic or it can be like just the way we look," said Karam Jarrah, 17.
They may not know the reason for the attack, but they do know that one of the suspects, 28-year-old Arthur Roman, is a police officer in Illinois.
Arthur Roman's brother, 25-year-old Martin Roman was armed with a knife, and Martin Roman's wife Jessica also arrested for the attack. Martin and Jessica Roman are from Lake Forest.

lake forest
One of the most affluent towns in the United States. Situated just outside Chicago along Lake Michigan, Lake Forest is home to some of the wealthiest families in America. "Old Money" is a term used most often to describe the residents, who generally occupy the largest mansions, which are on the lake, costing an average of $10 million a pop. Crime is low, expectations are high, and public education is amoung the best in country- Lake Forest High School delivers dozens of graduating students to the Ivy Leagues each year. Voted "best dressed women in America" but Elle Magazine several years running and "Best Places to Live- Most Affluent" by Money Magazine, Lake Forest boasts a town of beautiful, smart, and rich residents like no other place in the world.
