MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Twenty-six-year-old Raymond Widstrand was walking on Payne Avenue Sunday evening when he came across a large group of people, who were watching a fight.
Police say it happened Aug. 4, 2013, at about 11:30 p.m. When police arrived, Widstrand was on the ground with his legs and arms spread out. Blood was coming from his nose and mouth. His pants were off and his shirt torn.
Police questioned several people who were on the scene. One witness told police she had been a party at an address on Preble, near Minnehaha Avenue in St Paul.
She said that some of the girls at the party started fighting outside, and everyone came out to watch.
While this was happening, according to a criminal complaint filed in Ramsey County, she saw a young white man walking into the crowd.
The witness said she saw a person, she called “Bay Bay” hit the man in the head, knocking him down.
She also told police that she saw another man begin stomping the man. Another pulled his pants off.
Sgt. Paul Paulos says it’s a senseless crime.
“He is still alive and is day-by-day,” Paulos said.
The witness told police the man was hit and beaten for no reason. She also identified the attackers as being with the “East Side Boys” or “Ham Crazy.”
Issac O’Neal Maiden, 19, is charged in Ramsey County with assault for committing a crime for the benefit of a gang.
Police say as of Aug. 8, the prognosis for recovery is slight. Should he live, he will suffer permanent and protracted loss of brain function.

You're correct, it's that same old political correctness in the MSM: can't say that the perp was black and that the victim was white, especially in a case like this where the crime may have been racially motivated.
Used to be a time when the Twin Cities were considered about the safest major metro area in the country. But no longer, from what I can tell. Unfortunately for the victim and his family, they may not have realized that times have changed for the worse.
Thanks for the ping!
True, but then whites don’t have anyone to argue their case, do they?
As a nearly 50-year resident, I'd say that was largely true up until about 1990.
The dead eyes. The defiant expression. So typical. Wonder what the spiritual significance is in that more and more of a certain race of people are shown to be filled with such hate and murderous intent?
When the Somali invasion started.
Several people=50 black persons
My question is when will white fathers and white mothers have enough of this sacrificing of their sons to the black community?
Imagine the justified uproar if this was reversed. It would be national. But here? Nary a peep.
The tipping point will come.....the only question is when.
Also..just google Minneapolis mob black....we have not heard about most if these. This doesn’t look like an isolated incident...there is a serial problem there.
I’m sure we’ll see a picture on the nightly news tonight of Raymond Widstrand when he was 12, along with a story decrying 50 to 1 black on white violence. /sarc
Typically, bears aren't racist scum.
Remember that HUD wants to promote/force these people into your neighborhood.
Thanks for your local input. To what would you attribute the increase in street crime since then?
Not just sons, but white women who are raped. There is a sickness among those who don’t fight back against those who would, and who are, targeting them for violent crime. The brainwashing has to stop.
The reason for this is that the mass media's two principal concerns dovetail. The first principal concern is sensationalism. Dog bites man isn't sensational. Man bites dog is.
The second reason is that black on white crime doesn't fit the leftist narrative of black victims of white racism.
At 19, he just made it under the wire to be called a ‘teenager’. Had he been 20, he’d be described as a ‘youth’ (or as Joe Pesci would say a ‘yute’).
That's right. Black thugs are always "persons," or "youths" in headlines. In black on white crime, no matter how brutal and how obviously racially motivated, you never see the word "black" or "African American" in the headline.
In those extremely rare instances when the roles are reversed, however (even under the most dubious of circumstances), ALL that's talked about is the race of the perpetrator and the victim.
People have made long-term observations of the different races and reached rational conclusions; the more White a society is the more prosperous, inventive and SAFE it is. 19 of the 20 poorest countries are African and Haiti. In sub-Saharan Africa the only countries that could be considered successful were White-governed, (Rhodesia and S. Africa). To this day they still can’t even feed themselves even though they are the oldest race. In fact they didn’t have a written language until colonization.
A Black in America has twice the lifespan of a Black in Africa. It would would be longer except the top cause of death for 16-34 year-old Black males is another Black male killing them.
Whites are 17 times more likely to experience violence at the hands of Blacks than the other way around.
