Shits like that happens in the south side all the time, except people smash your face with bricks until your missing the upper side of your lip. Happened to my boy one time, he was walking down MY BLOCK at 2 am and 5 people ganged up on him and smashed his head against the window of a car and took his upper lip out with a brick.
They didn't even take his wallet or nothing, that's just the way shit goes over here. If your white and in the wrong place at the wrong time, your fucked.
