South China Morning Post published this video item, entitled “Atlanta shootings: suspect claims deadly attacks not racially motivated” – below is their description.
Robert Aaron Long, the man suspected of shooting at several massage parlours in the Atlanta area on March 16, claimed that it was not racially motivated. Six of the eight people killed in the three separate attacks were women of Asian descent.
Long, who is in custody, told investigators the attacks were related to his “sexual addiction”. The police said the suspect saw the massage parlours as “a temptation that he wanted to eliminate”. He had visited the spas in the past, according to local police. The incident has fueled concerns over increasing violence targeting Asians in the US.
