“It was a heinous crime but it was not a hate crime,” North College Hill Police Chief Gary Foust said.
Several residents called police, noting the suspects are black and inquiring whether Mahaney was specifically targeted because he is white. He was not, the chief said.
Oh really? Tell all of us exactly how you know this, Chief.
If this had been a black man attacked by white teens, it would have been national news. The usual race-baiting poverty pimps, in conjunction with the white Obama-worshipping liberal media, would have been all over North College Hill ASAP.
But these worthless pieces of shit only care when the “victims” are black. The fact that black on white crime is about 20 to 1 over white on black crime doesn’t concern the Jesse Jackson’s, Al Sharpton’s, and Obama-worshipping nedia assholes of the USA. These assholes only care when the victim is black.
NORTH COLLEGE HILL — Pat Mahaney was walking home Saturday with a six-pack of beer, looking forward to a quiet evening watching sports, when something hit him in the back of the head.
“The next thing I knew I woke up on my neighbor’s front step and the life squad was there,” the 45-year-old North College Hill resident said Wednesday.
Six teenagers “were just bored and were looking for something to do,” a police report said, when they ambushed Mahaney as he turned off Simpson Avenue onto Dallas Avenue. He was immediately knocked unconscious.
“I don’t remember anything,” Mahaney, 45, said as he recovered at his mother’s home. “I was walking home from the store – and ‘bam.’”
It was probably a blessing he was knocked out during the worst of the brutal attack – one of the teens even grabbed a can of beer and hurled it at his head.
The boys face felony charges of aggravated riot and felonious assault. The first five arrestees were: twin brothers Tyree and Terrell Mizzell, Lamont Champion and Daquan Cain, all 13-year-olds; and Michael E. James, 14.
The sixth and final suspect was arrested Tuesday. His name was not immediately available Wednesday.
All except one have been released from Hamilton County’s juvenile detention center and are on house arrest at their parents’ residences, court officials said.
The teens are scheduled for trial Aug. 24.
Mother of the Mizzell twins, Latasha Alford, 32, said that while not excusing her sons’ actions, they did feel peer pressure to go along with the other boys.
“They are deeply sorry for what happened,” she said. “They do feel bad. They do realize what they did was wrong.”
When police rounded up most of the teens, took them back to the police station and questioned them, they admitted Mahaney had done nothing to provoke being kicked and punched repeatedly in the face while he was helpless on the ground.
The boys told police they only stopped assaulting Mahaney when a neighbor began yelling at them and said he was calling police.
An officer who happened to be in the area responding to a call about dogs fighting spotted a crowd of people gathered at the corner of Dallas and Simpson. Several witnesses told the officer that Mahaney, who was covered in blood, “was jumped by six children,” the incident report states.
Mahaney was taken to Mercy Mt. Airy Hospital, where he was treated for four days before being released Tuesday. He suffered so many internal injuries that doctors had to insert a tube down his throat to remove all the blood from his stomach.
A tube remained in his right nostril Wednesday and blood continued to seep out of his head. His left eye was heavily blackened.
Mahaney has no health insurance and has been unemployed for “years,” he said. He is looking for factory work but with the slow economy, jobs are almost impossible to come by, he said.
He said he was taken aback by the age of his assailants.
“I didn’t think kids could do something like this,” he said. “They should be punished.”
Neighbors and police were stunned at the brutality of the attack.
“It was a heinous crime but it was not a hate crime,” North College Hill Police Chief Gary Foust said. Several residents called police, noting the suspects are black and inquiring whether Mahaney was specifically targeted because he is white. He was not, the chief said.
But police were struck by how cocky the boys were for their age.
“They were pretty arrogant in the interview with us,” Foust said. “It’s appalling. I think it’s despicable. This appears to be premeditated and there was no remorse on behalf of any of the assailants. Thirteen-year-olds ought to be playing basketball, not running the streets looking for ways to entertain themselves at the expense of somebody.”
Foust credited Mahaney’s neighbors for coming to his aid.
“If not for their assistance, we would not have been able to investigate and complete it with the arrests,” he said. “The community as a whole was not tolerable of the offense and were very instrumental in giving us the individuals involved.”
A wood plaque on Mahaney’s house reads: “Protected by Angels.”
Kita Hill, 26, who lives next door to Mahaney, said, “He is real sweet.”
“He says ‘hi’ to me and my kids all the time. I think it is ignorant what happened to him. Why would kids jump on a man minding his own business? I think it is sad. I hope nothing like that happens again here,” Hill said. “I keep my kids inside unless I am outside to watch then. You just never know what might happen.”

It’s sad that the police chief can automatically say that this attack isn’t a ‘hate crime’, while if the roles were reversed, either an investigation would be underway to see if the perpetrators had ever said anything racist, or it’d be assumed they were motivated by hate.
Regardless of motive, these
kidsthugs need to have the book thrown at them.Black on white crime is never called a “hate crime”.
These attacks are happening way too often.
Here is an aspect that is troubling and not often discussed:
Something needs to happen to address that attitude. These creatures are criminals today and will be worse criminals tomorrow.

There’s an Australian journalist, I believe with the Sydney Morning Herald, who penned an article back in the mid 1990′s describing black on white crime in America as a low intensity one sided race war that had claimed more lives since 1965 than the total number of American soldiers killed in Vietnam.
Shame on You Chief of Police Foust. I hope something like this never happens to you or your family. You better get control of your surroundings. NCH not long ago was a Great place to raise a family.
Now that the thugs and idiots have moved into the NCH Section 8 housing, things will only get worse.
Black on White crime will never be a topic of NCH Police with an idiot like Foust. The problem is the ..iggers…have been given free for for so long, they see the free drying up and they are looking for retribution.
Shame on You FOUST…
On what planet is it normal for just-barely-teenagers to decide to stomp somebody into the ground because they’re “just bored”?
What we’re seeing (wherever enclaves of racial-grievance-whining blacks live, wherever large groups of immigrant Muslims live, wherever Mexicans-awaiting-The-Reconquista live) can be considered “forays into enemy territory by tribal warriors”. Raids. Guerilla warfare. The above commenter who referred to “low intensity one-sided race war” was close. In South Africa, the whites have been complaining for years that they’re the victims of “low-level genocide”, which I think is a little closer to the truth.
It’s easy for those-who-don’t-want-to-see to believe each of these attacks is “just random crime” perpetrated by “a small group of aberrant or poorly socialized individuals”.
As Mark Steyn said about the Approved Official Song-and-Dance (every time there’s another Muslim attempt at mass murder of US citizens here on our home soil) which pretends it was just a “lone wolf” attack by some “deranged individual(s)”
“… he may be called Mohammed but he’s a “lone wolf.” {…} just a lone wolf like Major Hasan and Faisal Shahzad and all the other card-carrying members of the Amalgamated Union of Lone Wolves {…} even if there are enough lone wolves around to form their own Radio City Rockette line, it’s still nothing to do with Islam …” (*)

In the same fashion, The Powers That Be insist on seeing only a few, random, unconnected instances of black-on-white crime, triggered by absolutely nothing. NO WAY would they stop to consider that “there’s something going on in that culture that is *DEEPLY HOSTILE* to America and our American way of life”. [And there's NO WAY they they'll stop and crunch the crime stats and see that there's a three-front war going on against us right here in our own country.]
Our government entities at the local, city, state, and federal levels simply DO NOT WANT TO SEE the pattern of attack and harassment by these various minority groups; if they saw it they’d have to devise ways to protect the citizenry and keep the civil peace — which would allow the racial/ ethnic/ bigotry pimps to don their mantle of self-righteousness and shout “Racism! Islamophobia! You hate and fear the brown man!” [And our society as a whole has STILL not figured out that applying rule-of-law equally to everyone is *NOT* racism, NOT bigotry, NOT any kind of "phobia". Poor, sorry, silly us.]

Dr. Gregory Stanton of Genocide Watch just visited South Africa and held a press conference with the Transvaal Agricultural Union denouncing the murders of white farmers there. That situation is getting very ugly and the media in the US and Europe is doing their best to ignore it. The only politicians in the West to condemn the farm murders and other hate crimes against whites in South Africa have been, interestingly enough, from Geert Wilder’s PVV in Holland and the Vlaams Belang in Belgium.
