STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- A second suspect has admitted to his role in an assault on a white victim in Stapleton eight months ago, pleading guilty Tuesday to a hate crime.
Raymond (Storm) Banks, 23, was part of a group that attacked the 28-year-old man on Targee Street between Laurel and Vanderbilt avenues, at about 3 p.m. on June 19, said authorities.
"You white piece of (expletive)! You white cracker! You're in the wrong neighborhood!" the group yelled as they beat the man, then threw a garbage can, a fluorescent light tube and a milk crate at him, said a criminal complaint.
