“A young black woman in the US state of Louisiana apparently staged a racist attack in which she told police that three men set her ablaze and scrawled KKK on her car, officials said Tuesday. Sharmeka Moffitt, 20, was seriously burned in the incident and remains in critical condition. She called police from a park in the town of Winnsboro on Sunday night and told them three men in white hoodies doused her with a flammable liquid and ignited it. The FBI was called in to assist local authorities because the incident was initially considered a possible hate crime.”
