Seattle Police Chief: Call 911 When You Hear Hate Speech

Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best told city residents Monday to call 911 if they hear “racist name calling.”

As Washington state continues to battle new coronavirus infections, Best decided to focus on hate speech.

“Washington State is no place for hate. In a show of solidarity, @LoriMatsukawa joined me to remind everyone that hate has no place in our community. Report hate, including racist name calling, to 911. We are here to help, and will respond to investigate.”
