A man is recovering from a violent daytime assault that happened late last month, which the Edmonton Police Service believes was motivated by hate.
It happened on Wednesday, Jan. 26, around 2:30 p.m., north of the downtown core in the Alberta Avenue area.
Edmonton police said the the victim, a Black man, was walking north along 95 Street near 114 Avenue when another unknown man reportedly yelled a racial slur at him from across the street.
"It was reported that the suspect then ran across the street and punched the complainant until he fell to the ground, at which point the suspect began kicking him," a news release issued Tuesday said.
Police said the victim briefly lost consciousness before waking up and walking a few blocks to the nearby Royal Alexandra Hospital, where officers met him.
The man was treated for serious but non-life threatening injuries, police said, adding since the attack he has been receiving support from the EPS Crime and Trauma-Informed Support Services and Community Relations Section.

Cellphone video of a physical interaction between an Alberta RCMP officer and a young Indigenous man was shared hundreds of times on social media accounts Tuesday.
The incident itself occurred in Rocky Mountain House, Alta., on Monday evening.
"(RCMP officers) actually received several calls for service for an intoxicated individual who was running around in and out of businesses, in traffic, yelling, screaming and punching vehicles," Cpl. Troy Savinkoff said.
The video shows a man walking around and then an officer pointing a gun at him. There is no audio.
The man then gets down on the ground and puts his hands behind his back before being handcuffed by the officer.
"Not once did he resist arrest at any point from what we could see," the witness said.
The woman said she feels the officer was unnecessarily aggressive.
"(He) just ripped him up off the ground and starting pushing him to the vehicle, not letting him get his feet settled on the ground or anything," she recalled.

This incident doesn't meet the criteria of a hate crime, but the force used by the police officer appears excessive.

We only see a small part of it. I am not jumping to conclusions from that short video.
