Burlingame police say they are investigating a possible hate crime after a Muslim woman says she was verbally assaulted and spat at by a man this week.
The alleged assault took place as the woman was walking to pick her kids up from school along a residential stretch of El Camino Real in Burlingame.
She says she left her apartment around 1 p.m. Tuesday afternoon to pick up her children at school when she passed a man who suddenly stopped.“He was holding his shirt in his hands, he immediately walked up to her. covered his face with his shirt, spat on her and was shouting. Calling her derogatory names and telling her to ‘go back where she came from,’” said Raed Atawneh, the victim’s translator.
“She instantly was very afraid. She didn’t do anything. She was too scared to hold up her phone or to call the police or to even take a photo of him,” Atawneh told NBC Bay Area.The victim said that the suspect didn’t follow her as she rushed to the school. That's where the principal called the police department.
