LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: A white woman was recorded destroying her African-American neighbors' car with a hammer before telling them to "get the f*** out of this neighborhood."

The woman in question, who has been branded a racist 'LA Karen', was seen in a video uploaded on Twitter by a guy named Edy Perez banging on the side of a car with a hammer. Although the elderly white woman, whose identity was not revealed, is seen in the video hitting the car twice with the hammer, it is clear that she had been doing quite a number on the vehicle from before her neighbor started recording the video as the car appeared to be quite dented.

"I got you on video, you destroying my car," the person recording the video says to the woman, as she stops hitting the car and advances toward the camera. She is seen carrying two hammers - one in each hand. "Get the f*** out of this neighborhood, f**king s**t," she tells the woman recording the video, who replies, "Yep, cool lady." The woman with the hammer then yells, "Call the police!" The woman recording the video replies, "I am calling. Don't worry."

The white woman is also later seen kicking the recycling bin between her and her neighbors' house. As someone is heard in the background calling a 911 operator, the woman recording the video tells the one dialing to inform the operator that 'Karen' was destroying public property and that she had her on video. 

In a different video, a neighbor is seen wrestling with the same white woman, calling her a racist and cursing her. The person in the video says they are "sick and tired" of her racist activities and order her to turn off her hose before pushing her into a bush. 

Perez spoke to TMZ about the incident, saying that ever since he and his roommates moved next door to the woman she has been shouting racist epithets at them. But for the most part, they had been ignoring her, choosing not to respond to her or go into any kind of confrontation. However, things escalated last week when Perez said his sister heard the sound of banging coming from outside of the house and found the woman having a go at their car parked on the street. Although the woman was arrested, she was released by the Los Angeles Police Department within the next 24 hours due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Since Perez does not have full coverage when it comes to making repairs to her car, he has set up a GoFundMe page to raise money for the same. "This Racist woman smashes my car in with two hammers for no reason. I don’t have full coverage insurance for my car so anything will help. She was arrested but later let go due to COVID. Help fund me for repair or lawyer fees. Really anything helps," the page reads. In just 14 hours, the fundraiser was very close to reaching its goal of $10,000, having already raised more $9,000.
