Shomari Stone, Seattle reporter whose bravery kept a possible white supremacist from being killed.
A brother in Seattle needs a medal today. He was just doing his job when he burst into action and threw on his Superman cape to rescue what may very well be a white supremacist. Police told him after he broke up the altercation between the alleged white supremacist and a black man that there were swastikas all over his arm.
It was an average day in the neighborhood when Shomari Stone, a reporter for KOMO News, was covering a story when all of a sudden four men began fighting in front of him in what looks like a downtown pier in Seattle. The man who was in the fight with the white guy was pummelling him so bad that Stone had to jump in before the incident became fatal.
Most of the things yelled during and after the scuffle were incoherent, but it sounded like the black man said they were trying to rob him. The white guy’s friend yells after the black men something about selling marijuana. After police told Stone that the guy may be a white supremacist, he said the white guy came to thank him. Stone replied, “Remember to judge the man by his character and not the color of his skin.”
You’re a class act Stone! Check him out here. You can see the full altercation and how he dives into action and breaks up the fight.
