The FBI is investigating after an Indiana man says a group of white men tried to lynch him in an attack on July 4 that was partially caught on video, a spokesperson for the agency confirmed Wednesday.
Chris Bavender, a spokesperson for the FBI’s Indianapolis office, told The Hill that the FBI is investigating Vauhxx Booker’s report that he was attacked near Lake Monroe.
Booker posted on Facebook Sunday that he was attacked by five white men with Confederate flags. He also said one man asked to “get a noose.”
