A Connecticut town held an ‘anti racism meeting’ on Wednesday night after local lawns were blanketed with flyers reading ‘Black Crimes Matter’, following an attempted theft of a white man’s car which saw him being seriously beaten.

The attempted car theft was captured on a Ring doorbell camera in Rocky Hill on April 10, and has since been blamed for sparking ongoing racial tensions there.
