A man threw a mysterious liquid in a teenager’s face in Queens, New York, on Tuesday, Oct. 24, in what some are calling an “anti-white” attack.
“It was obviously a caustic liquid because it did cause her to have burning in the eyes, which needed to be treated appropriately,” said Vincent Evangelista, the girl’s father who is also a doctor, said.
“She was actually fairly calm and collected but she was sobbing,” Evangelista added.
The teen’s aunt followed the suspect after he threw the liquid in her face, which burned her eyes.
Jessica Romero said she saw it happen as she got off the bus.
“I was like, ’sweetie, take a picture. Call 911 right now because you don’t know if that’s water or what that is,'” she said.
The man is described as around 30 years old with a dark complexion and a bald head. He was seen wearing a dark hoodie with a red shirt beneath, blue pants, and tan/brown boots.
