NEW YORK — A Massachusetts man who authorities say assaulted a Muslim airline employee at New York’s Kennedy Airport is facing hate crime charges. The Queens District Attorney’s Office says 57-year-old Robin Rhodes, of Worchester, was waiting for a flight to Massachusetts Wednesday night when he approached Delta employee Rabeeya Khan, who wears a hijab, while she was sitting in her office. Prosecutors say Rhodes asked Khan if she was praying. He then punched the door and kicked her leg. Khan fled and prosecutors say Rhodes followed her, got to his knees as if he was praying, cursed Islam and shouted “Trump is here now. He will get rid of you.” Rhodes has been charged with assault, unlawful imprisonment, menacing and harassment as hate crimes. It’s unclear if he has an attorney who can comment. Poster Comment: Simple assault would do it, IMO. The police/DA are getting carried away.

Should we trust a news report when they misspell Worcester? I suppose my problem is that my standards are too high. : )

One of Trump's "dream students" working for AP, below minimum wage? According to a statement from the DA's office, Robin Rhodes, 57, of Worcester, was returning from a trip to Aruba, waiting for a connecting flight, when he spotted Rabeeya Khan, a contracted employee of the airport, sitting in her office. Rhodes allegedly starting banging on her office door, yelling obscenities at her and kicking her leg. The DA's office report said that when Khan tried to escape, Rhodes got down on his knees and began imitating Muslim prayers. He then began shouting at Khan, "(obscenity) Islam, (obscenity) ISIS, Trump is here now. He will get rid of all of you. You can ask Germany, Belgium and France about these kind of people. You will see what happens," according to the statement.
Yeah! It's Wooster, right?
