Where is the reliable source that backs up the claim in this bit of youtube nonsense? Your source claims the "mainstream" media aren't reporting the incident, but the New Haven Register, an old-line establishment newspaper is, and did so days ago. In fact, the Register reported the incident the day after it took place. Here's a followup piece from a couple of days ago: New Haven police say witness accounts of alleged scooter theft, assault all differ NEW HAVEN Police are still attempting to piece together the events that left Brooks Macquarrie seriously injured after his scooter was allegedly stolen Friday afternoon. The call came in on Friday as a motor vehicle accident on Goffe Street. Sgt. Max Joyner, district manager of Beaver Hills, said he was down the street and got to the scene about 30 seconds after the call came in. There were no visible skid marks, Joyner said. Sgt. Robert Lawlor Jr., head of the Robbery/Burglary Unit, said that police so far have three witnesses, but all their accounts of the incident are different. “It doesn’t seem like anyone actually observed the initial incident,” he said. Some witnesses reported that between five and six male teenagers rushed Macquarrie and pushed him off the scooter, then proceeded to assault him, according to police. The only possible accident debris was a small piece of plastic that is a few inches long and a screw, he said. Macquarrie is a technician at New Haven Powersports, located on Whalley Avenue. He has also raced in Motocross races the majority of his life, according to employees at New Haven Powersports. He was released from the hospital on Saturday. Doctors who evaluated Macquarrie said his injuries are inconsistent with a quick beat down, according to Lawlor. Macquarrie had 31 stitches and eight staples in his scalp, two fractured ribs and a fractured right eye-socket following the incident. He was sent to Yale-New Haven Hospital for treatment. The last thing he remembers is being parked on his scooter at a red light before noticing the group of teenagers crossing the street, according to a previous Register report. One teen on a bicycle came close before, but his next memory was waking up in the hospital. “They didn’t take my wallet or my gold chain, just the scooter,” Macquarrie said in a previous report. There was also a report that a green car and a dark-colored Acura sped away from the scene, Lawlor said. Officers David Rivera and Jose Miranda spotted the candy-apple red scooter on Dixwell Avenue near the plaza shortly after 9:30 p.m. Friday. The two young men riding the scooter abandoned it after they fled into the rear yard of 31 Orchard Place, according to police. The scooter is being tested for forensic evidence. Calls placed to Macquarrie’s residence weren’t immediately returned. - - - Nice try, asshole. Given the city where this took place, it was a plausible account of what happened. Nice try asshole. |
