Whitewater Police Investigate Hate Crime

Whitewater Police are investigating a hate crime. They say a woman was punched in the face because the attackers thought she was gay. With the attackers still on the loose many on campus are outraged, most of all those fearing they may now be targets.

It is on a quiet Tratt Street just blocks from the UW-Whitewater Campus where police say a female student was assaulted because the attackers thought she was gay. It’s an attack that initially went unreported.
