    Mississippi natives Christopher Elder, Joshua Matheny, and Michael Matheny have been charged by the Memphis Police with civil rights intimidation and attempted robbery.

    What We Know:

    • These charges stem from the three men allegedly attacking two black men in a downtown parking garage on September 2.
    • One of the victims, Shane Smith, told a local ABC station that the three men yelled racial slurs at him as they attacked him, resulting in ten stitches for a busted lip.
    • “They called me ‘n*****,’ they had taken one n*****’s shoes. They said they were going to take another one’s. They tried to take my stuff from me, but luckily they weren’t able to take anything,” Smith said.
    • Unfortunately, Smith was not the only victim that night. Memphis police also confirmed that the three men also robbed another victim for his $200 sneakers.
    • After this incident, Smith is grateful it did not escalate even further, stating he was “just thankful” he walked away with minor injuries.

    Praying for these two victims to have a speedy recovery.
