A black woman is facing hate crime charges in Oregon for allegedly attacking a mom at a bus stop while saying that she hated “white people,” court documents show.

Nimo Jire Kalinle, 42, on Jan. 19 began punching Janae Jordan in the face after getting off a bus at a stop in North Portland, where the victim had been waiting with her husband and young daughter, according to court documents obtained by The Oregonian.

“It’s because you’re white and I hate white people,” Kalinle told Jordan when the woman asked why she was attacking her, a probable cause affidavit shows.

The victim’s husband stepped in and restrained Kalinle, who is black, until cops arrived, KPTV reports.

Jordan told investigators she did not know Kalinle and had never met her prior to the alleged bias attack, the station reports.

Kalinle, who was taken into custody Sunday, was later indicted on multiple criminal counts in the bus stop assault, including first-degree bias crime, felony assault and interfering with public transportation. She pleaded not guilty to those charges Monday, KPTV reports.

Kalinle was arrested after failing to show up for a Feb. 5 arraignment, prompting authorities to issue a bench warrant for her arrest in the bus stop beatdown, The Oregonian reports.

Kalinle is also facing charges of suspicion of criminal mischief and disorderly conduct for throwing rocks through bus shelters and damaging other Tri-County Metropolitan Transportation property, the newspaper reports.

Kalinle is set to return to court March 6, according to KPTV. It’s unclear if she’s hired an attorney.

N.S.: “Hired”? Who’s Joshua Miller kidding? Nimo Jire Kalinle’s not going to “hire” anyone. We, the taxpayers shall “hire” an attorney for her.
