young medical student harassed at a movie theater in New York because of ‘what happened in Paris’

Christian Alexander Pean, a fourth-year medical student in New York, was at the movies two days after the Paris terrorist attacks when he was approached by a middle aged white man who said he didn’t trust him and that he should not be texting in public after “what happened in Paris,” he wrote in a post on Facebook yesterday. Pean was waiting for a friend at the AMC on 84th Street in Manhattan, passing the time on his phone, when a man he didn’t know came up to him, asked him what he was doing there, and demanded that he stop texting. The man then asked him what was inside his jacket, Pean said, and said he was suspicious of Pean
