" TUKWILA, Wash. -- Two women of Somali descent were the victims of an assault on Saturday in Tukwila that is now being investigated as a hate crime, police said.

The victims were attempting to buy gas at an AM/PM station on the corner of Tukwila International and Southcenter boulevards on Saturday evening, police said. While the victims were trying to resolve the issue, the suspect, a 37-year-old Burien woman, made disparaging remarks to them referring to what she perceived their race and religion to be."
