Muslim Stanford student injured in hit-and-run by driver who yelled ‘f—k you and your people’

A Muslim Stanford University student was injured in a hit-and-run by a driver who allegedly yelled “f—k you and your people,” and California police are investigating the incident as a racially motivated hate crime, the school said Sunday.

The victim was struck Friday afternoon by a driver who reportedly made eye contact with him before peeling away and yelling out the car’s open window, according to Stanford’s Department of Public Safety.

He described the driver as a white male in his mid-20s, with short dirty-blonde hair, a short beard, and round-framed eyeglasses. The car was reportedly a Toyota 4Runner.

“I never imagined becoming the victim of a hate-driven attack,” the victim said in a statement to ABC News. “His hateful screams … still echo in my ears.”

The student was left hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, but he said psychological trauma from the attack would remain.

“The physical wounds will heal with time, but the emotional scars — the feeling of being targeted solely because of my physical appearance, heritage and beliefs — are likely to linger.”

“As I lay in my hospital bed, grappling with a reality I had never imagined, I reflect on the importance of spreading love kindness, and compassion in a world that seems to be steadily succumbing to hatred and prejudice,” he said.

Stanford University said it was “profoundly disturbed” by reports of the incident, adding “hate-based violence is morally reprehensible.”

“We condemn it in the strongest terms,” the school said.

The school faced criticism following Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel after banners calling the Jewish state an “occupation” were unfurled on campus buildings.

The school had the banners removed, but clarified they were doing so “based on the location of the banners, not the content or viewpoint expressed,” while insisting it maintained a neutral position on the conflict.

It was the latest incident of violence to hit US campuses since fighting broke out in Israel after Hamas attacked the Jewish nation on October 7.

Since then, a Jewish student at Columbia University was beaten with a stick during an argument over the conflict.

At Cornell University, a student was arrested for threatening to murder Jewish students.

Also, a student at Harvard University was physically harassed by pro-Palestinian demonstrators.

In Illinois, a 6-year-old Muslim boy was stabbed to death by his family’s landlord in a killing allegedly motivated by the ongoing conflict.
