RENO, Nevada – A wheelchair-bound man at the airport in Reno, Nevada was captured on video making racist remarks to a man speaking Spanish.
Bi-lingual passenger Hector Torres said he was talking to his mother on the phone while waiting to board a flight. Moments later, the man, referred to “Mike” in the video, began to yell racial slurs and profanities. At one point, he even appeared to physically assault Torres.
