"On June 14th, an Asian American woman was allegedly violently attacked by a stranger while she walked down a Culver City sidewalk. We understand that the aggressor was yelling racist comments at the victim during the attack. I am deeply saddened by this senseless criminal act. Our City Council, Chief of Police, and all City employees stand together in our outrage. We reaffirm one of our core values: racism and hate crimes will not be tolerated in Culver City. Everyone should have the right to feel safe in our community. We express our heartfelt wishes for the victim's complete recovery. Anyone with information regarding this attack is asked to call the Culver City Police Department Detective Bureau at 310-253-6300. Please help us fight bigotry and hate crimes.

Mayor Culver City
