Thank you for providing the descriptions provided by the BPD without stripping out race as has been the Daily Cal practice for years
That’s no description at all as far as sayingwhat the suspects looked like. The vagueness is worse than no remarks. So now, be on the lookout for 2 black males and 1 white male. I’d turn you in for a reward. All that’s missing is lynching.
“backward blue baseball cap, a long white t-shirt that went down nearly to his knees and dark pant[s]“
Am I hallucinating, or does this article actually include the full description of the suspects (complete with race)? Way to go Daily Cal! Now you just need to work on use of that word “allegedly”…
