You Get What You Deserve, White Boy': 13-Year-Old Set on Fire in Horrific Racially Charged Attack

Police in Kansas City are investigating a possible hate crime after a 13-year-old boy was doused in gasoline and set on fire. According to Allen Goin's mother, the attack occurred just as her son was getting home from school. She said, "They rushed him on the porch as he tried to get the door open...one of them poured gasoline, then flicked the Bic and said, 'This is what you deserve. You get what you deserve white boy.'"

The police say the boy was engulfed in a "large fireball," but was able to beat out the flames to call 911 and his father. In addition to suffering first degree burns, he has lost his eyebrows, eyelashes, and part of the skin on his face. There is also long-term concern about his eyes and lungs.

The family intends to move out of fear that the attackers went to their son's school, which KMBC reports he will not return to. Melissa Coon, the boy's mother, said her youngest son, 5, asked her, "Mom, am I going to get set on fire today?"

"I was in tears," she said.
