A black man who was shot inside Seattle's Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) last week claims it was a 'hate crime' carried out by a group of white supremacists who dropped the N-word before opening fire on him. 'I understand everybody's going to say, "Oh, it was the CHAZ zone and ya'll asked for the police not to be there, so don't act like ya'll need them now.' Hours later on Sunday, a 17-year-old victim was shot in the arm but declined to speak with detectives, police said. Nineteen-year-old rapper Lorenzo Anderson was shot and killed on Saturday inside the autonomous zone in Seattle. Two members of the African American Community Advisory Council were booed when they tried to tell protesters that the message had been 'hijacked'.
