Man In Car Runs Down 11-Year-Old Girl 'Because She Was White'
by Tom Gantert
Steven Becky ran over a little girl with his car and then told police he did it "because she was white."
Draper, UT – Police arrested a 19-year-old man who admitted he purposely drove over an 11-year-old girl who was pushing her scooter up the street “because she was white.”
The incident occurred at about 8:30 a.m. on June 1 as the little girl was pushing her bright blue scooter south on S. Winged Bluff Lane, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
Draper City Police Chief John Eining said Steven Ray Becky was driving his 2010 Volkswagen Jetta on the wrong side of the same road, headed north.
Court documents said that statements made by Becky after the wreck, as well as surveillance footage from the security cameras at the home in front of which they crashed, indicated that the man had intentionally struck the little girl, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
Chief Eining said the surveillance video showed Becky made a “hard turn” into the girl.
Court documents said that Becky’s front bumper struck the child and then his vehicle flipped over, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
"This is not what I would describe as veered into the gal or drifted into the gal. My description would be turned into the gal,” the chief told reporters.
Clark Santos owns the home with the surveillance cameras that captured the horrific attack on the little girl.
“I got my cameras, not for this reason,” Clark Santos told KSTU. “I woke up because my phone was alerting me, some motion in my driveway.”
When Santos walked outside, he saw the aftermath of the crash.
“It was pretty bad. It was pretty horrific,” he said. “I see the girl laying down freaking out and all this mess.”
Ronald Cook, a witness who was at the scene, told police that right after the crash, Becky walked up to the girl in an aggressive manner and said, “We all have to die sometime,” KSTU reported.
Cook said that Becky tried to flee the scene of the wreck but he restrained him.
He told police that while he was holding Becky, the suspect admitted that he had been using drugs.
Becky told Cook that he had taken Xanax and used marijuana before getting into his car and purposely hitting the girl, according to KSTU.
When police arrived, Becky was uncooperative and behaved in an erratic manner.
The suspect told police he had run over the little girl “because she was white,” KSTU reported.
Becky showed no sympathy to the victim or regret for his actions when talking to law enforcement.
He was transported to the hospital where he told the doctor that he had taken LSD and mushrooms before he ran down the child, according to KSTU.
The 11-year-old girl was taken to the hospital in serious condition. Her injuries included a head injury and a fractured hip.
Chief Eining said Becky knew the little girl because she is friends with the child of a family member with whom he was staying, KSTU reported.
He was arrested and charged with suspicion of attempted criminal homicide and driving under the influence causing serious bodily injury.
I wouldn’t sell a gun to that guy. Yet, if he wasn’t caught, he’d make the head lines eventually using one. My question is was the vehicle an automatic? All automatic vehicles with gas tanks larger than 5 gallons should be band.
Or at least require a background check for those wishing to purchase automatic vehicles, A.K.A. Assault Vehicles, with high capacity gas storage. I mean, really how many people could one kill with such a dangerous vehicle in the wrong hands. 8>)
“The press” finds it waaaaayy beyond its capacity for irony to even note that this is a hate crime absolutely equal to any and all others. Because it’s “white on white” it will be chalked up to being an “anomaly”, a “one-off”, something that broke the “usual” mold...and that is why it will be ignored, or if reported on, certain obvious details will be left out, and we know which ones.Any white trying to kill a fellow white “because” she’s white they will see as proof positive that he’s a psycho, an identity not afforded to other attempted murderers,especially those using a gun, which handily plays right into one of the cornerstones of their anti-gun Agenda.
They should have beat him until the cops arrived.
After that, you can huddle with Rachel Dolezal and Elizabeth Warren ...
You’re correct. It doesn’t surprise me that Rachel Dolezal and Martina Big behave as they do-the left wing media and universities have been demonizing whites for decades now.
The elite press is afraid to see the truth... if they see it it's rocks the whole premise of 'their superiority' - that 'they're not racists' and 'everyone else is'...
This was an impressive stance in the 1960's at a time when the moral superiority of that position was real. It's NOT real today. Today it's nothing more than people who have switched 'choice of victims...' - and they are easily as unethical as the worst of the Jim Crow racists...
I didn’t say pot caused it. Re-read the comment. However, it’s noteworthy that the wannabe killer mixed pot with other stuff. Anyone who thinks that it won’t or doesn’t happen on a large scale may be smoking a little too much pot. So again: California, buckle up.
