TROY
- "They tried to run us off the road saying, 'You [n*****], get the
[f***] out of our country,' and we were like distraught because we
didn't know exactly what was going on," Natia Shim said.
Shim and her 17-year-old son were on their way to Latham Farms last
Thursday afternoon to fill out job applications for the soon-to-be high
school graduate when all of a sudden, she says, a green truck with
lights on top of it rammed her car into the shoulder.
"All he kept saying was, 'Mommy, they're going to kill us, they're
going to kill us,' and I'm just sitting there like, 'Just go,' and I'm
ducking down in the seat," Shim explained.
She says the truck cut them off at the exit ramp to Latham.

Then at least three men and two women -- one older and one younger --
got out and began destroying her mirrors, hitting the car with bats and
smashing in a window, she later learned from witnesses, with a frying
pan. This all while shouting obscenities and racial slurs.
"They're screaming, 'We are the white supremacists,' and n*****s do not belong in their country," Shim recalled.
Her son managed to maneuver out of the chaos and she called 911.
Because the incident happened on a state road, New York State Police began investigating.
Shim says in the time she was being interrogated at Troop G, seven eyewitnesses called to corroborate her story.
All three of the suspects are charged with criminal mischief, reckless endangerment and menacing.

The latest on this story is that the Attorney for one of the suspects says there is more to the story that will come out in the next few weeks. However when you look at the evidence and the facts, this was clearly an attack and just another bullshit attempt by an Attorney to turn his client into a victim. I don't care if you're cut off in traffic or words are exchanged, it doesn't make it right to damage someone vehicle to that extent, and even run them off the road shouting racial slurs. This could've been much worst for the real victims and that's the mother and son.
UPDATE
I recently did some research on this story to see if there was any updates, and it was. Apparently the mother lied, she was never there when the incident took place, and from what I know it was just the son. It's really sad because incidents like this makes it even harder when it comes down to racial injustice. - June 19,2018
