Woman charged with hate crime after calling cops on Black delivery driver – By ArLuther Lee (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution) / June 24 2021
A white woman in California is facing hate crime charges after she allegedly hurled racial slurs at a Black Amazon delivery driver and physically tried to block him from leaving her neighborhood.
The confrontation happened April 18 near 1700 Delaware St. in North Berkeley.
Reports said 35-year-old Julie Warland became upset over the way the van was driving through her neighborhood. She and her boyfriend allegedly followed the Amazon truck to “confront” the driver, later identified as 25-year-old Kendall McIntosh.
Warland parked her vehicle beside the delivery van “in a manner to prevent escape,” authorities said in an incident report.
