WISCONSIN TEENS TRIED TO PUSH 14-YEAR-OLD BLACK BOY INTO FARM EQUIPMENT WHILE YELLING SLURS

What was supposed to be a regular barn party in Iowa County, Wisconsin turned ugly real quick when a group of teens attacked a 14-year-old Black boy, shoving him toward farm machinery while screaming racial slurs.

What Went Down

According to the Iowa County Sheriff’s Office, deputies were called out to a barn party in the Town of Pulaski on August 16 after reports of a fight. By the time they got there, everyone had already dipped. Later, video of the incident surfaced showing a group of teens physically assaulting the boy and yelling racist slurs during the attack (WKOW).

“This wasn’t a fight. This was a targeted attack.”

The “Meat Grinder” Mix-Up

At first, posts on social media claimed the boy was almost pushed into an “industrial meat grinder.” That detail spread like wildfire, but people with farm experience later clarified it was actually a MacDon FD135 combine harvester header—still a massive, dangerous piece of machinery, but not a meat grinder. Even so, it doesn’t take away from the seriousness of what happened (Baller Alert).

Internet Outrage

Clips and witness posts hit Instagram, Facebook, and Reddit, sparking outrage. On X (formerly Twitter), users shared the story with hashtags like #Justice4Keontae, demanding accountability. One viral post summed it up:

“Wisconsin teens beat up a 14-year-old Black boy using racial slurs—then tried to push him into a harvester.” (X)

What Happens Next

The sheriff’s office says the case is still under investigation. Right now, no names have been released and no charges filed, but with video evidence and the community pushing for accountability, many want this to be prosecuted as a hate crime (WKOW).

Why It Matters

This wasn’t just “kids messing around.” It was racially motivated violence. The misinformation about the “meat grinder” got attention, but the real story is bad enough on its own. It highlights how racism in rural areas often flies under the radar until something this extreme goes viral.
