GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WZZM) -- The Grand Rapids Police Department wants to hear from anyone who can identify some assault suspects seen in cell phone video. View Quote Police say the group of people seen in the video were punching and kicking a man who had been walking by them. Investigators say it happened around 10:15 p.m. July 28 near Monroe Ave. and Louis St. NW, near Rosa Parks Circle. You can see the video above and it does contain some harsh language. Sgt. Terry Dixon says, "If you watch the video from beginning to end, you can hear them laughing and you can hear different voices in the video". Dixon says they do not yet have a motive in the attack. http://www.freep.com/story/news/local/grand-rapids-central/2015/08/03/grpd-looking-for-help-identifying-assault-suspects/31086933/ Grand Rapids police say they have arrested five people for their roles in an assault captured on a cell phone video on July 28. http://www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/2015/08/07/grand-rapids-cops-arrest-5-suspects-video-assault/31273935/ |

Welp, if he didn't hate liberals before he does now. Probably values his 2A rights more as well.

I figured only good things would happen around Rosa Parks Circle.

That's a pretty crazy area for that to happen. Lot's of foot traffic, only a couple of blocks from the police department. Now, about a half mile south, that's where things get fun.

'Teens' I assume? Maybe 'Youths'? View Quote What did they look like? "Teens" ...but could you be more descriptive? Any definining characteristics? "Like... Youths." Ehem... Sir if we could just get some information on their physical appearance it would go a long way towards... "I'm pretty sure they were young teens, you know, like, urban youths and teens and stuff." ...Okay sir, but were they white? African American, Hispa... "Look man I don't see color. I just saw teens." |

Dixon says they do not yet have a motive in the attack. View Quote More like they don't want to report that the attack was racially motivated. |

Have not watched the video, let me go out on a limb here and guess who.

the street name in the article was all I needed to confirm my hunch

I was raised in a small town not far from GR in the early 60s. It used to move me to tears to see what has become of that area. Now, I'm still very sad, but the tears are all used up.

View Quote downtown GR has really come a long way in the last 10 years, they even have "ambassadors" who are paid to walk the streets and offer assistance and move the bums along.. until 0200, downtown is a rather safe place to be now, lots of people and lots of stuff to do, lots of police presence.. that said, you hang out at the bars after 0200 and nothing good is going to happen in any town... |

My sister works security at local hotel. Been happening every Tuesday. Same group. Same race attacked. Big police increase but unable to catch them.

And it's racist if I cross the street to avoid a group of black teens
