Madeline Barker, 47, was charged with assault as a hate crime, attempted assault as a hate crime and harassment as a hate crime for the June 11 incident.
A woman accused of pepper-spraying four Asian women in New York City’s Meatpacking District earlier this month has been arrested and charged with hate crimes.
Madeline Barker, 47, was charged on Saturday with assault as a hate crime, attempted assault as a hate crime and harassment as a hate crime for the June 11 incident at the intersection of 14th Street and Ninth Avenue in Chelsea. One of the victims, identified as Nicole, told NextShark that it all started when her group of friends — who were walking around the area —to decide where they would head next. A woman in pink, who was sitting on one of the rocks, suddenly turned and said “I know what you’re trying to do, you’re trying to harass me.”
The group tried to keep their distance but the situation escalated. Nicole recalled the woman telling them to “Go back to the country you came from” and “You don’t belong here.”Nicole said the woman began pepper spraying them when she took out her phone to record the scene. In a video, the woman can be seen still holding what appears to be pepper spray while people around her insist their distance.
The woman left the scene without issue. On Friday, New York police announced that they arrested Barker, a resident of Florida’s Merritt Island, in connection to the incident.
