Georgia man arrested after video shows him spew racism at Black trucker

https://www.rawstory.com/georgia-man-arrested-after-video-shows-him-spew-racism-at-black-trucker/

A Georgia man has been arrested and charged with assault after he was seen in a video shouting profanities and racial slurs over an apparent parking dispute, the Atlanta Black Star reports.

David McConnell, 63, was arrested on a simple assault charge after the incident with a Black trucker outside a McDonald's in Atlanta.

In the video, McConnell can be heard saying is “Dumba** n**** that don’t know where to park his f***ing truck.”

The video was taken by the victim.

“I never thought that it would happen to me,” the man, who did not want to be identified, said. “I parked along the curve here. I walked in and grabbed food and as I was walking out he was coming in and he started yelling and cursing.”

In the video, McConnell yells, “Nobody can get around your stupid a**. They can’t get around your stupid a**. I want to knock the f***ing hell out of you in a minute.”
