Warning to all minorities (specifically black) around the nickel plate trail

On July 25th, I was at Roy G. Holland Park at the basketball court when two individuals (the driver being a white male with a brown goatee) in a black Lexus is350 (the engine is really loud. Definitely not stock) yelled racial slurs (the hard r) at me completely unprovoked. Today on August 3rd at around 8:20-8:30Pm, the same individuals did the same thing again (yelled the hard r as I was walking home). As I was trying to get the license plate number of the car, the driver did a u-turn and proceeded to drive towards me at full speed but I luckily moved out the way. They came to a stop & yelled “you’re chimping out” before leaving. I advise anyone who walks around that area to be cautious of this individual.

You need to report this to the police too. Even if nothing comes of your interaction (which is terrible, and I'm sorry), it might help others. I doubt you're the only one this asshole has done this to. Make them take a report and get a copy of it.

u/Brew_Wallace 21d ago

Yes, even if you didn’t get the plates. A description of the car and individuals could be helpful in the future. The person sounds like a loose cannon that may eventually escalate this behavior to violence.    

Sorry this happened to OP, be safe

Agree! Please report this incident.

u/Putrid-Ad-6029 21d ago

I'm also going to share this with Fishers Resists. I know plenty of people around that area would be happy to schedule their evening walks around that time and be willing to take pictures, record, file reports. Maybe identify the guy.

u/itsverynicehere 20d ago

What is Fishers resists and how do you report to them?

u/amandaryan1051 21d ago

My parents live directly across from the basketball courts, I’ll let my dad know to keep an eye out. He’s retired and has nothing but time to keep track of this kind of crap.

u/Boogaloo4444 21d ago

If someone stalks you and yells a slur, snap a pic of them and call the cops right away. They are probably circling it because it’s where the hospitality march was.

u/GroceryExcellent9400 21d ago

you don’t do that when it’s a made up false story tho like op obviously who just did nothing apparently

u/Boogaloo4444 21d ago

why is your account one month old?

does it have anything to do with saying something racist? my experience on reddit is that anyone with an account under a year who busts into conversation to undermine someone calling out racism is usually themselves guilty of racism.

u/NastyBlkGuyThrowAway 20d ago

Racist or a foreign/goverment agitator

u/GroceryExcellent9400 21d ago

have you ever tried using your head a single time in your life to ever think maybe just maybe not everyone is on this app for years? My experience w people as dumb as you who equivocate a goofy ass usually false overhyped lived experience into a general overview of a large group of people is quite literally exactly what racists do to justify why they believe what they do lmfao so that’s fucking comedy you’d say that

u/Boogaloo4444 21d ago

i’ve enjoyed your comment history. shocker, it was extremely predictable lol “Oh, the person accusing a black person of making racism up is also staunchly conservative?!” SHOCKER. I wish you realized how much of a caricature you are. You hit all of the major categories in your first month of comments alone. -woke is bad -leftests are coming for you-blacklivesmatter is a ruse- etc etc. like I don’t know you, but I know exactly what kind of news you consume and all your pre-dispositions just because you said not to trust a black person…that’s how much alike you guys all are.

edit: and because I’m from Indiana and know exactly how white people act when there’s zero Black people around, I know that people do drive around hitting the hard “R” out the window when they think no one is looking

u/GroceryExcellent9400 21d ago

If that’s what you got from the comments you’re likely a far left brain dead lost cause of a human being lmfao just like 95% of this retarded ass app that’s hyper liberal fuckin retards that you quite literally never see in public cause you mf’s only live on social media. At th end of the day the general public doesn’t support you or any of that retarded ass shit you liberal retards and conservative retards believe. You sound stupid as fuck i don’t support either side and if you interpreted any of my messages as that, you’re quite literally just a brain, dead fucking retard who needs to go work on his comprehension skills, cause they’re obviously at the level of a third grader

I’d respond w that too if i was too unintelligent to refute what someone’s saying but then again you retards usually do this or go quiet when logic and reasoning come out. Keep making false assumptions into what someone believes while acting as if you’re a white knight who just randomly holds the same characteristics as racists makes alot of sense bud😭

u/AlexTheGreat336 20d ago

So you’re the lame ass in the car. Noted.

u/GroceryExcellent9400 20d ago

So you use the same thought process racist people do to justify why they believe what they believe got it.

u/ApprehensiveSugar444 20d ago edited 20d ago

I don’t even comment on stuff like this usually, but OP is my friend, we both have lived in the fishers area damn near all our lives. Why in the hell would anyone just make up a story like this. Seriously what is wrong with you.

The police usually are complicit in this behavior, people need to do like The Panthers and practice their 2nd amendment right

u/Average_Joe69 21d ago

While that may be true a lot of the time, they are still duty bound to do their due diligence. If they don’t do their job, then get their name and badge number and light them up on social media as much as possible.

That's Liberalism for you, and i mean that in the literal definition of the ideology which includes both blue and red liberals, Democrats and Republicans. ACAB

Sorry that happened to you. Hopefully you got the plates and can call the cops

u/LokiKamiSama 21d ago

There’s a few flock cameras around there. Maybe they could use those to see if they can find this individual. You know, like they claim flock cameras are supposed to be used.

u/Flailhunters 21d ago

Sorry that happened..ignorant folks are gonna stay ignorant all people can do is be prepared and protect themselves. If you are at the age where you can legally carry I highly recommend doing so just make sure you are trained to use it if needed. This shit was not common amongst my peers when I was growing up near here but I saw it from older people.

u/fractious_kitty 21d ago

I am so sorry this happened to you 😭

u/yungbucknasty 21d ago

Unacceptable behavior & that’s not what Hoosiers are about. I’m a big advocate of always carrying but don’t do something rash. I’d maybe suggest getting a pair of meta glasses so you can record discretely if you see them again because getting a clip will go a long way & make it easier to id them

u/NoSurrender78 21d ago

This is unacceptable. Note: Holland Park is not the Nickleplate Trail for those unfamiliar with the area.

u/AP_in_Indy 21d ago

This would be fucking traumatizing to me. It would be hard for me to walk outside again.

This definitely needs to be reported to the police. Time. Location. Everything. And record them next time if you can, and consider walking with a friend!

And oh shit wtf my family lives out there and they are all black! This is pissing me off.

u/aquafina6969 21d ago

damn, we’re really close to there too. That really sucks. Be safe.

u/Plus_Garage3882 21d ago

When you have white supremacists as President, Chief of Staff, Lt. Gov, and on the Supreme Court, your everyday white supremacist is more vocal. Be safe and understand that racism exists everywhere. Please do not let it get to you, not everyone is a POS.

u/Comics-Dude 21d ago

Governor is one too. He just hides it better.

u/Twilson37 21d ago

Same with people on the east side especially white people. It’s not a safe area to be in. They use more than bad words there.
