MARYSVILLE (CBS13) — A Marysville man is behind bars charged with a hate crime and assault. He walked into a 7-Eleven and threw hot coffee in the clerk’s face. He later told police he did it because he thought the clerk was Muslim.
“It’s fueled by hate and it’s an attack against all of us, so we need to stand up together to make sure that we put this kind of bigotry to an end,” said Amar Shergill, a board member with American Sikh Public Affairs Association.
The store clerk is still recovering after being assaulted earlier this week. Just before 2 o’clock Wednesday morning, a man dressed in black walked into the 7-Eleven on Highway 70.
Police said in a press release the man made a cup of coffee and tried to leave without paying. When the clerk confronted the man, video surveillance showed him throwing the hot coffee into the clerk’s face, punching the man and running.
