Four black suspects have been arested in connection with the attack on a special-needs teen that was streamed on Facebook Live.
Jordan Hill, 18; Tesfaye Cooper; 18; Brittany Covington, 18; and Tanishia Covington, 24, have each been charged with a hate crime, felony aggravated kidnapping, aggravated unlawful restraint and aggravated battery with a deadly weapon.


Hill, Cooper and Brittany Covington also face charges of residential burglary. Hill also faces charges of possession of a stolen vehicle. Which was used to transport the victim.


"*F*ck Donald Trump!" one attacker shouted in the video. "F*ck white people!"

The teen was tied up for four or five hours, Cmdr. Kevin Duffin of the Chicago Police Department said while briefing reporters. The victim will recover from his injuries and is at home with his parents,

 Duffin said the department sought hate crime charges because of the victim's diminished mental capacity, the fact that the four suspects tied him up and the racial epithets heard on the video.

The suspects will appear in court on Friday.
