Being the victim of an assault while black

A black hotel clerk had to call police to help eject a drunk and unruly guest who refused to leave the premises.

Half an hour later that same man returned and rushed behind the counter to assault the clerk. That clerk, Raymond Rachal, managed to get the upper hand in the unarmed skirmish and called 911 while pinning the assailant to the ground.

Cops showed up, aggressively shoved the victim of a premeditated assault around, and arrested him. The assailant was given a ride to a friend's house.

Quote:

Rachal was arrested and charged with resisting an officer, while Rabe was charged with trespassing and given a ride back to a friend’s house.

During the ride, body camera captured Rabe saying how none of what happened was his fault.

“I didn’t look at the video. You guys obviously have seen it, but I’m pretty sure I didn’t cross that black line,” he said, referring to the crowd control stanchion in a retractable belt at the clerk’s desk.

The charges against the clerk were later dropped. Surveillance cams and police bodycam show that the police claims of shoving and "resisting" were untrue.
