Just curious why in the post on March 21st at 9:17 a male was described merely as “suspicious” his race not included, while in the 9:42pm post on March 22nd, the race of a male…identified as “Black” was included. If race is important why was it included in one and not the other? If it isn’t important why was it included in one and not the other? If no race is identified am I to assume the race of the person is white? Any response would be helpful.
