Baltimore police say they are investigating a witness account that a group of black youths beat a Hispanic man near Patterson Park Sunday while saying, "This is for Trayvon."
A witness posted the account on a community Facebook page, and police confirmed they are looking into whether the suspects' reaction to the verdict in the Florida trial of George Zimmerman played a part in the incident. A police report on the beating does not mention the alleged comments.
Sgt. Eric Kowalczyk, a police spokesman, declined to go into further detail.
In a post that drew nearly 50 comments on Facebook, real estate agent Christina Dudley said she was walking to her car just before 9 p.m. when she saw several young black males and two black females chasing a 37-year-old Hispanic man west on North Linwood Avenue past East Fairmont Avenue.
"One of the boys had a handgun out and it was pointed at the back of him," Dudley said in an interview.
They caught up to the man at the corner of Fairmount and N. Streeper Street, and the male with the gun beat the victim with what appeared to be his gun while others kicked and stomped him, Dudley said.
"They were just yelling and calling him names as they ran after him, but once they were hitting him and after that they started yelling, "This is for Trayvon [expletive]," said Dudley, who heard the chant repeated multiple times.
Dudley and a woman walking her dog across the street told the group to stop and warned that they were calling 911. The group scattered before police arrived. Police have no arrests or named suspects.
Using a translator, police spoke to the victim, who knows some English, according to the police report.

Well....
He should have had a gun to defend himself from serious bodily harm and possibly death.
I see that the opening salvos of the Race War are on schedule.
Now is the time to be vigilant, to observe what is being covered up in the background.
And arm yourself.
Shocking! Brothers from the Hood are usually so polite.
Used to love Baltimore, years ago. It is becoming a shit hole now..
Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, the NAACP, the White House, MSNBC, and all the other race-baiters are directly responsible for this crime.
Someone contact La Raza. :)
Sounds like a civil rights violation. Calling Eric Holder.... Crickets...
no equivalency here. was not a white hispanic
Becoming?
I could be mistaken, but I think it’s been that way for a while now.
Telled?
“Someone contact La Raza.”
Screw La Raza, call MS-13!!!
This is what Obama and his minions wanted..they wanted this more than they wanted Obamacare..having a race war, having blacks kill as many whites as possible is exactly what they wait..waiting for the DOJ to investigate this case..waiting..waiting..oh screw it its never going to happen
This evinces a depraved mind and premeditated design. If the victim dies it is murder.
Blacks have centuries of suppressed rage and it is time for them to do some payback. Hispanics will probably institute their payback in 50 years or so. The entire country is divided along racial lines — everything is about race these days.
LaRaza is like NOW. As long as they get $$$, they close their eyes.
With the political and media whores egging it on......
