Four black young men have been arrested after attacking a white Alabama teen who said “blue lives matter.”
Brian Ogle, who is 17, was hospitalized with serious head injuries after he told students wearing Black Live matter tee shirts at his school that “blue lives matter,” according to his mother, Brandi Allen.
According to Sylacauga Police Chief Kelley Johnson, the four young men, all recent students from Sylacauga High School, were arrested on Tuesday for their part in the attack that took place on September 30. Police believe the attack may have been racially-motivated.
