Mckenzie approached a man in Vancouver, held a knife to his stomach and uttered a racial slur

A man convicted in the hate-motivated assault with a weapon has been sentenced to a year in jail and another on probation.

The Vancouver Police Department said the 48-year-old victim was waiting for a friend outside an apartment building near West Hastings and Homer streets on May 12, 2022. “VPD’s hate crime detectives worked closely with the Black community and Crown to convey to the judge that cases like this don’t only negatively impact the victim, but also members of the entire community,” Visintin.

Other charges In a series of unrelated charges, Mckenzie was also sentenced to one day jail with 30 days credit for time in custody after pleading guilty to possession of stolen property, cash and credit cards in connection with an April 20 offence in Port Coquitlam.
