Disabled veteran says four black women brutally attacked her on Mother's Day: 'F*** you, you white b****'

Police in Louisville are reportedly investigating a potential hate crime after a disabled army veteran was viciously attacked in a parking lot on Mother's Day.

What happened?

Pamela Ahlstedt-Brown, a disabled Army veteran, told WAVE-TV she was trying to back out of a handicapped parking space at her local Kroger grocery store when she noticed a vehicle parked behind her, preventing her from leaving.

Ahlstedt-Brown said she confronted the passengers inside the vehicle, whom she identified as four young black women in a Dodge car.

"I get out and I say, 'Do you guys need any help?' and she said, 'F*** you, you white b****.' I said, 'Hold on, you don't even know me,'" Brown said. "I said, 'That's fine. If you don't need anything, that's fine. I'll get back in the car,'" Ahlstedt-Brown explained.

That's when Ahlstedt-Brown was attacked, she told WAVE.

"I mean, they were beating me, and I was in a fetal position, covering my face, making sure they didn't get my eyes," she explained.

According to WAVE, strangers in the parking lot — not Kroger security guards — stopped the attack.

More from WAVE:

Brown said she went back to the Kroger on Sunday to speak to LMPD officers and tried to retrieve security footage. Tuesday, her daughter called the police multiple times to obtain security footage to no avail.

"They told her, 'You could have got the video from Kroger the first day.' And then he followed that up with, 'Well, a detective has it, so you can't get it from Kroger.' So which was is it? His response was to hang up on her," Brown said.

Ahlstedt-Brown told WAVE she sustained a broken nose during the attack.

What did police say?

A spokesman for the Louisville Metro Police Department reportedly said detectives are investigating the incident as a possible hate crime.

"We're gonna collect all the evidence, present it in court, and they will decide," a LMPD spokesman reportedly said. "A hate crime is an enhancement, in this case, it's an assault is where we are at at this time. The courts will eventually decide that."

TheBlaze reached out to Kroger about the incident, but did not receive a response as of press time.
