Gospel singer, pastor Marvin Winans assaulted, carjacked in Detroit
Quote:
Popular Detroit pastor and gospel singer Marvin Winans was assaulted and carjacked Wednesday afternoon at a gas station on the city's west side.
The attack happened about 3:20 p.m., and the suspects fled with an unknown amount of cash and Winans' SUV, police said.
Winans, 54, told WXYZ-TV that four or five young men followed him from inside the gas station and attacked him while he gassed up his vehicle.

Winans said he didn't believe he was seriously hurt, but planned to seek medical attention.
He said his attackers appeared to be among 10 young men he passed by inside the station, and he warily watched them as he pumped gas.
"I'm just saddened that it has come to this," Winans said. "This kind of nonsense just has to stop. It's just the savageness of what's happening in the street."
I agree Pastor Winans many of your people have been reduced to savage behavior hopefully you can help address this issue.

These Detroit gas station attacks appear to be almost commonplace. What a cesspool.

He's African, and hates the fact that when walking down the street he is simply read as a Black American. Internalized racism is a horrible thing.
