O.K. this happened on Wednesday in Utah, but has anyone heard it mentioned ANYWHERE in the mainstream media? A Sudanese refugee drove his car into a bunch of kids walking home from school and hit six of them! None were killed.
From the Salt Lake Tribune:
Police have arrested a man they believe purposely ran his car into six children walking home from Kearns Junior High on Wednesday.
As rattled parents and students tried to make sense of the bizarre incident Thursday, police continued to investigate why Luka Wall Kang, a 50-year-old Sudanese refugee, allegedly drove into the group of students on a sidewalk at 4015 West near 5600 South as children streamed home from school around 3:10 p.m.
Three boys hospitalized after they were hit by Kang weren’t seriously hurt and are on the mend, said Salt Lake County sheriff’s spokesman Don Hutson. The other three were treated at the scene. All of the injured students were home from the hospital by the end of the day Thursday, he said.
According to the Arizona Refugee Resettlement Program, Kang is a refugee from Sudan who came to the U.S. in May 2003 through Jewish Refugee Resettlement of Southern Arizona.
Records show he lived in Tuscon, Ariz., and Omaha, Neb., before arriving in Kearns “a few months ago,” Hutson said.
Kang told police that he suffered from depression and was frustrated over his lack of employment, Hutson said.
No, job, huh. Nothing new there either, but we keep bringing in refugees at a pace greater than last year.
Then this statement reminds us how little anyone knows about the refugee resettlement program. We already heard above that he was a refugee resettled by a Jewish agency in Arizona, yet this is asked:
Hutson said police are working with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to determine whether Kang is here on a work visa or for political asylum.
He doesn’t have to be here as either, he is a refugee, one of 107 Sudanese resettled in Arizona in 2003.
Previously we have mentioned Sudanese refugees going crazy here and here.
