Dan Stringer: Picture of trainee chef after he was beaten 'by Asian gang in hate crime attack' | Mail Online
A trainee chef was beaten by a gang of Asian youngsters who fractured his skull and left him for dead in what police are treating as a unprovoked 'hate crime'
Dan Stringer, 17, who could lose his sight, was repeatedly kicked and punched by a mob of up to eight people after he fell over as they were chasing him down the street near Manchester.
The teenager was left with a fractured skull, multiple eyesocket fractures and needs plastic surgery to mend the smashed bones in his face.
The victim and his best friend Kavan Brown, also 17, were walking down Market Street, Hyde, Saturday evening when they passed by a takeaway shop.
Inside were a group of Asian men and a woman, one of whom banged on the window, produced a knife and made a threatening gesture suggesting they were going to cut their throats.
The victims ignored the gang and walked on, but moments later the group spilled outside and ran after them.
They tried to flee, but Dan fell over and was attacked by the gang.
Greater Manchester Police said he was repeatedly punched and kicked as he lay on the ground, suffering two fractured eye sockets.
He underwent surgery in hospital and is now in a stable condition. His mother Cheryl Stringer, 44, a care home supervisor from Stockport, Greater Manchester, posted a message on Facebook: ‘Been at Manchester Eye hospital all day.
‘He has damaged his nerves behind his eye we don't know the extent of this until his swelling goes down.
‘He then needs plastic surgery on the eye socket that they broke in two places. He also has several fractures to his cheek that needs plastic surgery and he also has a fractured skull.
‘It's going to be a long long battle for my gorgeous boy. Still can't understand why they left him in the road to die. What b******s do this?
‘Do they not have mums who care and poor Kav who had to stand and see his best mate left for dead. Well I hope they rot in hell.’
Kavan who suffered a broken nose in the attack said: ‘I just can't understand why it happened. ‘I'd never seen any of them in my life before but they seemed to pick us out as we walked down the street.
‘They split us up and we each had five of them attacking us, it was horrific. When they ran off, I saw Daniel on the floor, he was conscious but in a really bad way.
‘I'm still in shock at what happened to me but it's even more horrendous to see your best mate in the state he's in and now we're all just praying he'll be okay.’
A police spokesman confirmed the attack was being treated as a hate crime, although it is understood there were no racist or other comments directed at either victim.
Police said there were seven or eight offenders who are described as being Asian, in their late teens or early 20s.
Det Insp Dave Moores said: ‘The hospitalised victim hasn't yet been able to give us an account of what happened and what led up to this.
‘As a result we cannot speculate on a possible motive for this. What I can say is that one man has been left seriously injured while another is nursing less serious cuts and bruises.
‘It happened at a time of night where there are usually plenty of people milling around walking between pubs or visiting takeaways in the area.
‘A large group of up to eight offenders ran after the victims and anyone seeing it would have been under no illusions of what they were witnessing.
‘Please, if you saw the incident or what led up to it, or if you have any information that could help us, then pick up the phone.
‘I completely understand why this would cause some legitimate concern in the community, but I do not want anyone to jump to any conclusions about this.
‘This type of incident is unusual in Hyde, but that does not lessen the impact on the victims, their families and the wider community.’
So this is being treated as a hate crime but not as a racist attack, what hate crime could this come under if not one based on race?
I may disapprove of what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
Well I am pleased to see it is now being tretaed as a 'hate crime', which seems to be the new word for 'racist' attack.
The original report in the Manchester evening news made no mention of this.
Still nothing on the BBC or most of the press though, funny that!

"If you can't make your point without being offensive, you don't have a point"
Its finally being reported on the BBC!
Right now. Radio Four.

Why do you guys post these stupid articles in the most gruesome, non propaganda, detail?
I’m sure you guys are aware of similar Nazi propaganda about Jewish gangs, criminals, fraudsters, assassins etc. Gangs of youths attack other people all the time, why makes race an issue in this attack?
A 9yr old boy was raped in my area by a middle aged white man, we didn’t EXPECT BBC to report it, why do you? Four young lads were killed by a police car in a deliberate collision recently BBC didn’t report that, 3-4 taxi drivers living locally to me were stabbed to death by racists, BBC didn’t report these and neither did anyone else.
Hundreds of people are murdered every year and not even 1% are reported, why should this case receive special attention?
I been shot at my a group of 4 black guys, the thought of it being race related didn’t even cross my mind, it was a gang, looking for a ‘raise’, that’s what gangs do – they don’t rob other gangs, they rob vulnerable people.
The gang culture has gripped this country by storm, the media glorifies this culture, it has affected ALL the youth, white black, yellow red.
I may disapprove of what you say but I will defend to the death your right to say it.
Of course. Notice how his allies (TheCally) doesn't say a word about it? The moment some English dude does something, he and his Islamic trash are all over it like flies to dog ****. I noticed Bwana trying to take the mick out of this incident in another thread, but that is to be expected from a Islamic racist who hides being PC.
Also, look at the rubbish he posts.
