No hate crimes in wake of Trump victory, Bellingham police say
Police are discounting recent social media reports of racial intimidation in downtown Bellingham in the wake of Donald Trump’s victory in the Nov. 8 presidential election.
In posts on the Bellingham Police Department’s Facebook page and at the social media site Nextdoor.com, Neighborhood Police Officer Eric Osterkamp said the posts are part of a “false narrative” being circulated online. Nextdoor.com is a private social media website for neighborhoods and their residents.
