b'Colombian Leo Mendoza has lived in South Korea for 16 years. He\'s married to Korean & is a well known member of the Busan community for his work with a local dog shelter. Recently, he & his wife were shopping at Costco, & according to Mendoza, he was attacked by an older Korean man after a disagreement over how he & his wife spoke to the man\'s family after their young daughter was almost hit by a car. After police arrived on the scene, it became clear to Mendoza that he & his wife\'s request to file charges was not being taken seriously, & after several hours explaining their version of events to authorities at multiple police stations, the tables were turned as Mendoza\'s attacker claimed he was the victim, & Leo was told by police he was being arrested for assault. He & his wife quickly tuned to Facebook to describe their version of events on a public post that quickly went viral, & Mendoza also spoke with Korea FM reporter Chance Dorland to tell his story & warn other foreigners in South Korea to not get involved in other people\'s affairs as racism & police discrimination will likely cause foreigners to lose their rights.
