A | WHEATON, Ill. -- A suburban Chicago man has been charged with two hate crimes for allegedly verbally abusing and threatening to shoot two Muslim men, a prosecutor said Thursday.Larry York, 46, of Lombard, was denied pretrial release during a court hearing Thursday, DuPage County State’s Attorney Robert Berlin said.York confronted the victims and cursed at them Tuesday night at an apartment complex, where one of the victims had gone to meet a friend, Berlin said. While one man was seated in his car waiting for his friend, York initially approached him and asked the victim what he was doing there and began swearing at him and telling him he didn't belong in this country and to leave, Berlin said. York punched the man’s car window and walked to the lobby of the building, where the second victim was leaving an elevator. York began swearing at the second man and threatened to beat him, Berlin said. A short time later, while one of the men sat on a bench outside the building, York again approached the men and twice lifted the opposite end of the bench, causing the seated man to fall to the ground, the prosecutor said.York also allegedly told the men that he called four of his friends to come over and shoot the two men. The violence occurred amid heightened fears that the war between Israel and Hamas is sparking violence in the United States.The confrontation came three days after authorities say a 6-year-old Palestinian American boy was stabbed 26 times by his landlord in suburban Chicago.In California last week, flyers spreading anti-Jewish rhetoric were left in neighborhoods and on vehicles in the city of Orange. And in Fresno, police said a man suspected of breaking windows and leaving an anti-Jewish note at a bakery also is a “person of interest” in the vandalism of a local synagogue.York was arrested Wednesday at a Lombard bar.York’s attorney, assistant public defender Michael Orescanin, argued in court his client was a moderate risk and could wear an alcohol monitor. He said York was intoxicated at the time, thought the victims were trying to enter the building illegally, and that, perhaps, the victims instigated the conflict.A telephone message seeking further comment was left for Orescanin late Thursday afternoon at the DuPage County Public Defenders Office.“Hate crimes have no place in a civilized society,” Berlin said in a news release. “The allegations against Mr. York are extremely disturbing and in DuPage County we have no tolerance whatsoever for such vitriolic actions."。 AI摘要 厦门大力发展首发经济，构建四位一体服务体系，通过政策扶持与载体建设吸引首店集聚。上半年新增首店超百家，推动消费向品质体验延伸，持续激发城市消费活力，助力国际消费中心城市建设。 首店云集、首秀频频，规模效应、品牌效应聚集了人气，带火了消费。近日，记者随着“活力中国调研行”采访团，走进福建省厦门市，看“首”字出圈，如何持续激发这一滨海花园城市消费活力。 今年上半年，厦门万象城二期正式投入运营。厦门万象城门店副总经理邓学介绍，商城落地城市首店、特色旗舰店超50家，首店率达43%。 近年来，厦门将发展首发经济作为建设区域性国际消费中心城市、激发消费活力的重要抓手，着力构建“政策引导、载体支撑、场景赋能、服务保障”四位一体的首发经济服务体系，打造国内外知名品牌首发、首秀、首展、首店的集聚地和原创品牌孵化地。 厦门市商务局流通业发展处处长薛航介绍，2025年，厦门市印发促进首发经济高质量发展若干措施，通过优化审批和通关流程降低隐性成本，打造从首店落地到首发首展、再到品牌孵化的完整闭环，全年新增市级及以上品质首店188家，首店能级、业态及区域布局均实现结构性优化。
