acid attack

The victim was reportedly an "innocent bystander" in the confrontation, and suffered second- and third-degree burns after being doused with acid.
The mayor of Milwaukee blamed President Donald Trump’s rhetoric for an acid attack on a U.S. citizen.
"It’s because the president’s talking about it on a daily basis that people feel they have a license to go after Hispanic people," said Tom Barrett.
Milwaukee police arrested a 61-year-old man in what they are investigating as a hate crime.
