The Metrolink passenger, a white male, was filmed being viciously attacked on the St. Louis Metrolink reportedly over Michael Brown. The video was posted on Facebook.

Twan Davis wrote about the assault on Facebook…
“They straight tripping Cuhh…”

The 43 year-old victim told KMOV he was on his way home from work when he was beaten.
The other riders were laughing as the man was beaten.

Three suspects were arrested Monday for the crime.
NO hate crime charges will be filed in the attack.
4029TV reported:

There will be no hate crime charges for two males arrested in the beating of a man that may have been sparked by a question about the 2014 shooting of Michael Brown.

St. Louis police have charged Ronald Williams, 21, with assault. A 15-year-old has also been arrested, according to authorities.

There had been speculation that the suspects might be charged with a hate crime because the victim was white and the people who attacked him were black. And because the punches were thrown following the Michael Brown reference.

But that won’t be happening.

“Specifically, when put in context, it did not support the finding that the acts in this case met the elements of the hate crime statute in the state of Missouri, specifically proving the motivating factor behind the individual that we have charged, Ed Postawko with the St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office told CNN affilaite KMOV.
