The unidentified 17-year-olds β€” who police say are of β€œIndian descent” β€” face charges of harassment, bias intimidation and lewdness NJ.com reports.

The incident first came to light on social media with a parent reporting that someone urinated on her daughter and used the n-word during the football game.

Krystal Knapp of Planet Princeton reported: β€œOne student allegedly pulled his penis out and urinated on an eighth-grade girl who is black, according to a parent and statements made to the police.”

β€œSome students allegedly targeted younger black students ...calling [them] the n-word, taunting them, and screaming that they hate black people,” she wrote.

Oh my.

The racist incident was legitimized when Lawrence Township Mayor Christopher Bobbitt, who has a black wife and children, took to social media on Saturday morning denouncing bigotry.

β€œAs I have said publicly before, hate has no home in Lawrence Township,” he wrote. β€œAs someone that has felt its sting, I know that bigotry exists and sadly will continue to exist but that doesn’t mean that I give up. Instead I look to find allies that will help me fight the cancer of bigotry.”

Later that day, police opened an investigation.

β€œAs a police department, we take these incidents very seriously and we will continue to investigate until all of the facts are uncovered,” the Lawrence Township Police Department said in a statement. β€œThis type of behavior will not be condoned in our community.”

Trenton city councilman and Rutgers University professor Jerell Blakeley, an outspoken advocate against bigotry, said he was β€œextremely disturbed” by the parent’s account on social media.

β€œMy brother and sister graduated from Lawrence High and I can remember the racial incidents that they had to endure while students there,” Blakeley wrote on Facebook.

Last night, the councilman shared Lawrence Township Police’s arrest notice on Instagram.
