CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WNCN) – Charlotte police have charged a man with ethnic intimidation and other crimes for the role they say he played in an assault caught on video during last week’s violent protests.

Antonio Gatewood, 22, has been charged with common law robbery, assault inflicting serious bodily injury, false imprisonment and ethnic intimidation for the role police claim he played in the videotaped attack.

The video shows a group of several men attacking one man in the Epicentre parking deck on Sept. 21. The men attacking appear to be black, while the victim appears to be white.

The victim sustained serious injuries as a result of the attack, according to police.

Gatewood was already in the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office’s custody as a result of previous charges. He had already been charged with one count of felony breaking and entering, two counts of larceny after breaking and entering, two counts of felony conspiracy and one count of injury to real property in connection with protesters’ breaking into a Jimmy John’s and a Buffalo Wild Wings.

Police believe that several people present for the looting of a CVS that night might also have been present at or participated in the assault.

Police had earlier issued still images of the assault and the looting of the CVS as part of a plea for witnesses and the assault victim to come forward. Police were able to get in touch with the victim Sept. 27.
