Brother of Ashli Babbitt, the woman who was fatally shot by an officer during the Capital riot, is accused of yelling racial slurs and assaulting a Latino traffic controller in San Diego.
Roger Stefan Witthoeft, Jr. was arraigned last week on charges of committing battery, with a hate crime enhancement, and violating the victim’s constitutional rights by threat of force, San Diego City Attorney Mara W. Elliott announced.
The incident, which happened in September of last year, unfolded when Witthoeft was told by a San Diego Gas & Electric worker that he would need to take a detour.
Witthoeft "exited his pickup truck and verbally and physically confronted the worker, a Latino man," said a statement from Elliott's office.
"Witnesses told police that Witthoeft shouted a number of racial slurs at the worker, as well as variations on, “Why don’t you talk in English you ... immigrant?” and “Go back to your country you ... immigrant," the statement said.
Prosecutors said that witnesses also told investigators that Witthoeft challenged the worker to fight him and then shoved the worker and swung at him.
