Videos Surface of Couple Being Allegedly Harassed and Uttered Racial Slurs In Lansdowne Place Parking Lot

WARNING: Viewer discretion is advised as the videos can contain disturbing content such as coarse language, suggestive content and racial slurs.

Videos have been posted of a couple being allegedly harassed and had racial slurs uttered at them at the Lansdowne Place parking lot in front of the Real Canadian Superstore.

The videos have been posted to Facebook by Mostafizur Alif (viewer discretion is advised) on Wednesday, stating the incident occurred last week.

“I and my partner are still traumatized and I am posting so that it does not happen to someone else and we want justice. At Lansdowne Place parking lot last week,” said Alif on a Facebook post.

The videos depict three men returning to a white Chevy Silverado with the license plate ‘CB 79685.’ It was parked directly across from them when the incident occurred.

The cause of the incident is unknown. One man was recorded making obscene and sexual gestures towards the couple and their vehicle. The video also captured the same individual yelling a racial slur during the verbal altercation and again while the truck was pulling out of the parking lot. Name-calling could be heard from the men in the truck during the dispute but it was unclear which man made the comments.

The Peterborough Police have been made aware of the situation and issued the following statement regarding the incident:

“The Peterborough Police Service has received a call for service. As the investigation is just beginning, there is no further information available at this time.”
