Alabama white man beaten by black mob 'justice for Trayvon'

Mobile Alabama police need your help to catch a mob that beat Matthew Owens so badly that he's in the hospital in critical condition suffering from severe head wounds.
 
According to police, Owens fussed at some kids playing basketball in the middle of Delmar Drive about 8:30 Saturday night. They say the kids left and a group of adults returned, armed with literally everything but the kitchen sink.
 
Police tell News 5 the suspects used chairs, pipes and paint cans to beat Owens.
 
Owens' sister, Ashley Parker, saw the attack. "It was the scariest thing I have ever witnessed." Parker says 20 people, all African American, attacked her brother on the front porch of his home, using "brass buckles, paint cans and anything they could get their hands on."
 
Police will only say "multiple people" are involved. It is estimated that betwen 10-15 people were involved in the beating of Mr. Owens.
 
What Parker says happened next could make the fallout from the brutal beating even worse. As the attackers walked away, leaving Owen bleeding on the ground, Parker says one of them said "Now thats justice for Trayvon." Trayvon Martin is the unarmed teenager police say was shot and killed February 26 by neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman in Samford, Florida.
 
Police canvassed the area, but did not find any suspects and nobody has been forthcoming with any information. Yeah, an angry mob beating one man in the middle of the street and nobody knows anything about it, right? Bullshit. Somebody knows who did this.
 
They're asking anyone with information to call them at 251-208-7211, Crime Stoppers at 251-208-7000, or text a tip to 274637 and include the keyword CRIME 411.
