Last night while watching the 11:00 news, there was a story on KATU about four black girls that had attacked a white girl on a MAX train and robbed her. I also saw items on the same story on KOIN and KGW.

From the KGW web site:

A 16-year-old girl’s ethnicity may have been the reason why she was beaten and robbed at a Portland Max train stop Thursday.

Detectives said the girl’s attackers targeted her because she was white.

Following the alleged attack Thursday afternoon, Portland police arrested four girls between the ages of 13 and 16.
