anyone know this guy ?? hate crime at petsmart coquitlam
my nephew, brother, and i are still shaken up about what happened at the petsmart lougheed highway location.
at around 10:45am, while we were waiting for another car to pass, the man in the photo sped up while he backed out and was like an inch away from hitting us. the other driver watched and rolled down her window to say wtf? and we just watched the same guy zoom in and out of the same parking spot like a lunatic, not even checking if there’s anyone behind him. my brother confronted him and told him he almost hit us to which the guy replied “well, ‘almost’ means nothing, right?” … we just brushed it off and walked into the store until he told my brother to “go back to his land” and then went quiet when my brother asked him to say it again. that’s when i started filming him because we were shocked. having been born and raised in Canada, we had never experienced anything like this before.
we proceeded to enter the store where we saw the same man walking towards us, literally following us and going back and forth to wherever we were. with our nephew being there and watching this man follow us, we felt scared and uncomfortable so we informed the staff and left the store. the employee told us that he comes often and is always rude and disrespectful so i’m just confused why the store still allows him back in to verbally abuse their employees ??
this whole situation ruined our day and we weren’t really sure what to do. we were mainly concerned about our 5 year old nephew who had to witness that, as he’s too young to comprehend what just happened and why we had to rush out the store without getting what we needed. i phoned the racism and hate crime hotline and was told that a police report wouldn’t do much, considering the incident was primarily verbal and hard to prove what was said. so i’m just hoping anyone could help identify this man and warn others about his erratic and ignorant behaviour. racism and reckless driving shouldn’t be tolerated, especially around children.
