SENECA, SC (FOX Carolina) - Seneca police said they arrested six men Wednesday in connection with the beating of a North Carolina man at Applebee's earlier in March.
Police said their investigation determined that the victim was beat by the group of men and the incident may have been racially motivated. The department said they forwarded the case to the FBI to determine if it should be pursued further as a hate crime under federal law.
