The Manhattan District Attorney’s office has launched a hate crimes investigation into a potential racially motivated attack on the celebrity ex-wife of disgraced former NBA star Jayson Williams.
The investigation follows an incident where Tanya Young Williams, a Black business owner in New York City, was allegedly assaulted and called the N-word by a white suspect who got angry over a political poster of Vice President Kamala Harris displayed in her store window.
NYPD officers arrested 76-year-old Juan Bernal on Sept. 7 on charges of third-degree assault in connection with the incident. His arraignment is scheduled for Sept. 25.

The altercation occurred Aug. 30 when a homeless man stopped by Tanya Luxury Fashion Boutique on West 72nd Street to complain about the window display, which featured a poster of the Democratic presidential nominee with her campaign slogan, “We’re not going back.”
The store owner, Tanya Young Williams, said she was standing in the doorway of the store when the man walked by and called her a “n—er.”
