On Friday an Arab Muslim student at Stanford University was injured in a hit-and-run on campus in what is being investigated by the California Highway Patrol as a hate crime.
PALO ALTO -- Shortly before 2 p.m., the Arab student was crossing the street near the student residences when he was hit by a car and the driver sped off, allegedly while yelling, 'F--- you and your people.'Officials reported that the student sustained non-life-threatening injuries and is currently in the hospital. According to a statement from the victim after the incident, the driver made eye contact with him before accelerating.
'The university must deploy its resources to determine who the perpetrator was, support the survivor of this attack with specialized resources, care, and any and all resources they need at their request, and release a statement condemning the violent Islamophobic and anti-Arab hate crimes in particular and with that language that have occurred on campus,' the students wrote.
