UC Berkeley police are investigating a suspected hate crime after they say at least one person was targeted and assaulted because of their race.

University police said the victims were walking Friday in the area of Telegraph Ave and Bancroft Way when someone started yelling racial slurs and then fired at them with what was likely a BB gun. Police called it an aggravated assault hate crime.

Police are still looking for the person responsible.

The university’s warning system alerted students of the crime on Tuesday, the same day it was reported.
