A new surveillance video involving the death of Christopher Skinner suggests his assailants may have attacked him because his hand struck their SUV moments before a fight began that ended with his death.
Skinner, 27, was beaten by two to four men at Victoria and Adelaide Sts. shortly after 3 a.m. Sunday October 18 and left lying on the pavement in front of a black SUV, witnesses said.
According to those accounts, the vehicle's driver then deliberately drove over Skinner with both the front and rear wheels.

I don't understand this crime! And the fact that the police are challenging this as a hate crime nature of the crime is beyond me.

if his had did indeed hit the SUV, why would that warrant a beatdown and DRIVING OVER HIM?? No, this was an out and out hate crime and these fuckers WILL be caught.
