A Twitter user has exposed a pair of British girls who allegedly yelled racist slurs at them and their partner because they were Asian.
In a tweet posted on March 16, user @Keanu00823443, who also identifies as Darren Kane, claimed that the girls approached them while on a stroll, presumably minding their own business.
It’s unclear where exactly the incident happened, but Kane has called the attention of London’s Metropolitan Police Service.
“Today I was approached by two girls as I was having a stroll with my partner. They yelled out racial racism [sic] towards us since we both are Asian,” Kane wrote. “It’s come to a point where I’m just afraid of going out now.”
