Black gangs roaming downtown Denver often vented their hatred for white victims before assaulting and robbing them during a four-month crime wave, according to interviews and court records obtained by 7NEWS.

“I hate you f—ing white people,” said a black woman in a large group of black men, according to the victim who was beaten up as he and three buddies left a LoDo bar after midnight on Aug. 30.

“F—- you, white boys,” the woman added, according to the 25-year-old Westminster victim, who spoke to 7NEWS Friday.

7NEWS exposed the crime spree in early September when a law enforcement
source said the police department was keeping the public in the dark
about a series of downtown attacks. The source added that a special FBI
task force had been called in to help identify the assailants.

When 7NEWS made a public records request Sept. 3 for crime reports in
the area, a police spokesman confirmed the department was investigating
a “pattern of assaults and robberies in central Denver” that began in
July.

Police spokesman Sonny Jackson denied that police delayed
warning the public for seven weeks to avoid frightening visitors to the
popular and lucrative downtown entertainment district.

He said police had to confirm “a pattern of behavior” before going public.

As police pursued the massive investigation involving 35 suspects and
dozens of victims, investigators asked the young blacks why they
targeted whites.

“Because they got a lot of money,” suspect
Allen Ford, 18, allegedly told police. Other suspects echoed that
simple rationale.
