"A San Diego man was charged with hate crimes this week after an unprovoked attack on three Muslim women in which he slapped them and pulled on one of their hijabs, police said."
"Kyle Allen, 50, was booked on three counts of battery, three counts of violating the state hate crime law and one count of possessing a firearm silencer, which police found in his apartment when he was arrested, San Diego police Sgt. Matthew Botkin told HuffPost. Allen, free on bond, is scheduled to appear in court for arraignment on Oct. 21."
"The women, who are between the ages of 20 and 30 and live in the San Diego region, weren’t seriously hurt in the attack on Sunday. All three were wearing hijabs as they walked in the city’s Little Italy neighborhood when Allen, without provocation, intentionally barged into one of them, police said. "
"The situation quickly escalated, with Allen allegedly telling the women to “go back to their own country,” and slapping and beating them, police said. "
