Hispanics wary of fallout from deadly crash in Virginia Beach
Tagged: judge, latin america, VirginiaPosted on: April 8th, 2007“Because one Hispanic person is accused of causing a tragic accident, Monica Restrepo said, she now frets that many will be judged and be the brunt of insults.
“Were very worried about whats going to happen to all of us in the community,” said Restrepo, who owns the decade-old La Tapatia, believed to be one of the first Latin American grocery stores in the city.
Restrepo and other local Hispanics this week expressed their sympathy for the families of two Virginia Beach girls killed in a car crash March 30. But they also couldnt mask their concern over a possible backlash against both legal and illegal immigrants.”
