LOS ANGELES (KNX) -- A 51 year old Hispanic man was assaulted by as many as five African American teens, including one girl. The assailants beat the man with fists and a box cutter. The teens only stole the man's cell phone and other items.
The attack happened only a few blocks away from a police station in Norther Pasadena. Officials say that this may be the latest "Sock on Mexican" attack.
There have been 75 to 80 such street attacks over the last two years. The victims are normally young Latino males who are assaulted by groups of African American teenagers during the late night or early morning hours.
