A North Carolina career criminal is accused of randomly punching and hospitalizing a woman while chasing down another victim in a separate attack as he posted the disturbing footage across social media.
Di-Quan Schafar Hunt was arrested Thursday for committing the alleged assault in a residential neighborhood on the 400 block of East Boulevard in Charlotte, NC, on July 30, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said.
Police busted Hunt, 32, when the department was presented with several videos on his social media page, where the brute posted about his physical confrontations.
Hunt was recording himself talking about a “real issue” that happened on July 21st when he crossed paths with the unidentified woman holding a get-well balloon.
“Nah, don’t wave to me,” Hunt yelled at the defenseless woman, sending him into a fiery rage and punching his victim to the ground.
The 5-foot-9, 220-pound brute hovered over the motionless woman and screamed racial slurs at her as she lay on the pavement.
“You still talking? You still talking?” Hunt yelled. “July 21st. Say Elijah. Elijah my son, Motherf–ker you playing.”
Hunt ripped the broken frames from the woman’s sunglasses, kicked the balloon from the woman’s hand and ran off.
In a separate, undated video, Hunt — as he was ranting about McDonald’s — charged at another woman as she was walking on the sidewalk before chasing her around a car.
“You wanna run bitch, you wanna run motherf–ker, huh? I betcha run again motherf–ker,” he yells in the video.
On Thursday morning, officers responded to an “attempt to locate” call in the heart of Charlotte, where they were shown the disturbing videos posted by Hunt.
Hunt was taken into custody on an arrest warrant at around 7:30 p.m. Thursday.
He was transported to a medical facility for treatment, but officials did not provide details on the reason for the treatment.
