The man is seen standing looking at a clothing display wearing a face mask.

The attacker, wearing jeans and a black singlet, approaches from behind and coward punches him in the side of the head.

The man falls to the ground and holds out his hand pleading as the attacker looms over him.

“Don’t touch me, n****,” the attacker says as he punches the man in the face again.

The victim crawls along the ground saying “I’m sorry”, before being punched in the face for a third time.

Social media users urged the Flint Police Department to investigate the video.
