BALTIMORE (CNN) - Authorities in Baltimore are looking for three suspects in connection with an attack on a civilian employee of the Baltimore Police Department that was captured on a surveillance camera and sparked outrage.
She said the robbery may be "a possible hate crime in which the victim's religious head covering was forcibly removed before he was knocked to the ground."
Chaudry noted that the timing of the attack and the victim's religious attire indicate that he may have been returning from a morning prayer service.
The Baltimore police statement did not describe the attack as a possible hate crime.
Of that total, the FBI and the ATF, who have joined the investigation of the incident, each put up $5,000 for information on the identity of each suspect in the released video.
