Mrs. Ren said the suspects first approached her to ask her the time. She told them it was ‘5 o’clock’ while showing them her watch.

‘They search my body, and I quickly realize they’re up to no good,’ Mrs. Ren said.

She attempted to get into the elevator of the complex, refusing to give the juveniles her iPhone. They then followed her and pushed her down in anger at her resistance. She was punched in the head multiple times before being dragged onto the floor and kicked.

The teenagers took off but returned when Mrs. Ren attempted to hide.

Asian hate crimes have been widely reported in the past few years. In New York, a woman who was filmed in a viral video pepper spraying four Asian women in a racially motivated attack in Manhattan in June was formally charged with assault. 

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg announced the indictment of Madeline Barker after she pepper-sprayed a group of Asian women on Hudson Street in the meatpacking district while spitting racial remarks.

‘Hearing the hateful and discriminatory words, “go back to your country” is deeply painful and these women allegedly heard them before enduring the physical pain of Ms. Barker’s pepper spray. People of all backgrounds deserve to feel safe,’ Bragg said.

Madeline Barker, 47, was arraigned in July for attacking four Asian women last month. The women were standing right where she was sitting when she decided to attack them


The suspect, 47-year-old Madeline Barker, was caught on camera hurling racial insults at the victims, such as ‘Go back to where you came from’ and you don’t belong here,’ during the June 10 altercation. The footage subsequently went viral and led to police arresting Barker 

The four women experienced a burning sensation and pain in their eyes after the 41-year-old sprayed them for standing near where she was sitting.

The incident, which took place in a public plaza in the Meatpacking District, subsequently sparked a search for the then-unidentified woman – dubbed ‘Karen’ by internet users.

Shocking video recorded by the victims shows the moment the woman, dubbed ‘Karen’ by social media users, starts arguing with the four Queens women, all in their 20s, in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District on Saturday.

The victims, who asked to remain anonymous, told ABC 7 that they were checking out a flower installation when the woman suddenly picked a fight with them, and after accusing them of harassing her, the Karen pepper sprayed the four.

‘It was so painful, one victim said. ‘I couldn’t open my eyes for about 30 minutes.’

A bystander then filmed the victims walking away from the argument, but the Karen continues to yell at them and walks up behind one of the women and blasts her directly in the eyes with the pepper spray before leaving the area.

 Barker, of Florida, was ruled a possible flight risk at her first court appearance Saturday in Manhattan, and ordered held on $20,000 bail.
