Sep 1 (THAINDIAN NEWS) As Bethany Storro had just recently returned to her home town of Vancouver, was walking near Esther Short Park on Monday night, a woman whom she had never seen before threw acid on her face, leaving her with severe chemical burns.

The 28 year old woman was standing outside of her car at around 7:15 pm, planning to get a cup of coffee from Starbucks which was located closeby. Another woman who just happened to come by after the incident called 911, and Storro was rushed to Oregon Burn Center at Legacy Emanuel Medical Center.

According to Sorro’s mother, she will undergo surgery today which will take off the layers of skin which has been damaged , in an effort to help new skin grow back more quickly. Thankfully, Sorro had just purchased a pair of sunglasses and was wearing them when the attack occurred. This protected her eyes form being permanently damaged.

Sorro was said by her mother, Nancy Neuwalt, to be single, with no children. Sorro had just moved back to Vancouver from Priest River, Idaho. She works at a Safeway Grocery Store which is located in Washougal.

The description of the perpetrator is said to be an African American woman who looked to be between 25 and 35 years old. She had on a green shirt and khaki shorts,and her hair was pulled up. Anyone with any information should call Vancouver Police Detective Cpl. Wally Stefan, at 360-487-7425.

    typical disgusting negro behavior. Why won’t this be called what it is a hate crime? Why do we have to subsidize and pander to the negro? They are meant to be slaves and should be returned to their destined life which is picking cotton and saying yes sir and yes maam.
