The old lady ( yikes, guess I'm an old lady these days) was going to film the kids hanging out. The black teen snatched her phone and refused to give it back. That's why the old guy attacked the teen, not cuz he felt like jumping a black person per se.

I hope he's identified and charged. This is pretty serious as far as I'm concerned.
