thegoery details but they could have stopped and they kept going. >> this general area. >> his girlfriend says the couple was walking through the square just before midnight friday when they say they spotted three black men. >> one of them was making racial comments toward us and the other was blowing kisses so it was a very aggravating situation to be in. >> i didn't want to freak out on them because i thought they were saying something. i was trying to get a little more knowledge about the situation. and before we could even do that it was just bam-bam. >> he didn't want to show his face because it looks worse than the pictures. the next thing he remembers is waking up in an ambulance. the men attacked him and that they wouldn't stop. >> i was trying to pry them off before i knew it he was on the floor. it happened all so quickly. >> you think that these guys had a problem because he was dating an african american? >> definitely. that's simple.

trr couple says they've felt discrimination before but never anything like this >> the worse will be like a stair or snicker here or there but not to just -- it didn't get to the level of physical contact. >> i can't classify it as anything else or wrap my mind around the logical reason they would have to just go all out like that. >> police say they're reviewing surveillance video and talking to witnesses. the couple insists they did nothing to spark the attack. >> i just hope they get caught really i hope justice prevails at the end of the day. and this didn't happen in this

what got us in trouble in the first place. president obama has a plan to rebuild america from... the ground up, investing in innovation, education... and job training. it only works if there is a strong middle class. that's what happened when i was president. we need to keep going with his plan. president obama: i'm barack obama and... i approve this message.
