DETROIT (WWJ) - As a 54-year-old Roseville man clings to life in the hospital following a brutal mob beating on Detroits east side, many are starting to wonder if the whole thing was racially motivated. As first reported by WWJ Newsradio 950, an 11-year-old boy suffered a broken leg on Wednesday when he was hit by a pickup truck after walking into the street near Morang and Balfour. The driver, Steven Utash, immediately got out of his truck after hitting the boy and was viciously attacked by 10 to 12 men. The beating was so brutal, Utash was rendered unconscious.
Our preliminary investigation shows the child stepped in front of his vehicle, Woody said. He did exactly the right thing. He stopped his vehicle, he got out and he tried to render aid to a small child. He did exactly what he was supposed to do
It was a small child and it was an accident; is what it was. State Rep. Alberta Tinsley Talabi (D-Detroit), told WWJ Legal Analyst Charlie Langton the incident appears to have racial overtones, adding, its wrong. Joseph Utash said although it was tough to stomach, he watched video of the incident. As my dads truck was coming down the street, the kid stepped right in front of my dads truck. My dad had absolutely not one chance in the world to try to swerve out-of-the-way or stop, he said. He got out of the car to check on the kid and before he even got up to the kid, he got assaulted by 11, 12 people. They jumped all over him and beat him up.

There would have been dead skinnys and lots of empty shell casings around the injured boy as the cops arrived if it had been me.
“Seriously though, I would not be shocked to discover that the boy stepped out and got hit on purpose. I used to flip houses in the part of town that was 95% black. It was an almost daily occurrence that a 13-40 year-old male would step in front of my truck on the thoroughfare. It was a power play to make me stop. You could lay on the horn and they would never even look up.”
I Bklyn, laying on the horn when the ferals played their game would get you beat up. That’s what they want. Any excuse.
Yea, and she had a film crew there for protection.
I made a habit of open carry on the property, as I worked outside for the first couple of weeks. That usually did the trick in preventing attempts on me, but not always.
Derbyshire rules?
You are usually dead on, but this one makes me say,
R I G H T........... With a sizable chunk of salt.
I had a mag full of hollow-points in the pistol on me and a riot gun full of buck-shot in the back seat. I wasn't planning on taking the beating.
him being beaten by the black mob was definitely a hate crime - I do not know about the car accident though
Yup, in minneapolis, I remember seeing black moms walk into a busy street with a baby in a stroller with no pause, no looking around even.
I've seen it frequently, black teens walking across the street, giving a "screw you" attitude towards drivers.
I'm wondering, though, if it was deliberate: either get the driver to stop (at which point he gets surrounded and beaten, as a variation of the "knockout game"), or get hit by the car as an insurance scam.
“or get hit by the car as an insurance scam.”
Ding Ding Ding!
No more calls folks, we have a winner!
I do not agree. He was white, and one of "their" kids were injured. That is reason enough to kill him, and, of course, take his money, jewelry, phone, and tools, if they were really angry.
“Southerners” did pick their own cotton, the rich plantation owners were not usually “Southern” born, just land barrons.
But your statement on slavery is correct. Slavery may be something the Karma Police never let us pay back completely.
That explains all the “Best Russian Car Crashes” videos on YouTube.
I attempted to post on this yesterday, the post was apparently rejected, I have no idea why. My post listed 20 mainstream media links, not one mentioned race as a possible issue (maybe i’m not allowed to post all those links?). This story from CBS is the first I’ve heard of which even mentions the possibility of race as a factor.
In New York, a Jewish driver hitting a black teen resulted in the "Crown Heights Riot" pogrom against the ultra-orthodox community in Brooklyn.
Bottom line—when traveling in the jungle, Safari Principle in effect.
The existence of a video of the entire incident, even showing the child stepping out, begs the question the police and media probably will not ask: why was video being shot BEFOREHAND? Unless there is a very good answer, the person shooting the video knew something was about to happen.
Smells like the kid was told to step out in front of the next honkey, to make him stop so the mob could attack.
Why would anyone drive through these crime zones?
Maybe there should be street signs warning whites not to drive beyond a certain point in inner cities, for their own safety. Maybe “whites and Asians.”
Watch the video. It shows him standing on the curb with a group of older boys watching the traffic go by.
The older boys told him what car/truck to walk into.
You will also notice he didn’t walk out in front of traffic in a way that would likely get you killed, he walked into the side of the truck as it passed. He was coached!
