Police are trying to determine who killed Geike, who they said was walking with two other soldiers in Lakewood after 2 a.m. Saturday when someone in a passing car yelled a comment about them being white.
After one of the soldiers yelled back something about the shouter disrespecting combat soldiers, the vehicle turned around and stopped, and five black men who appeared to be in their mid-20s got out, police said.
The groups exchanged words, and the driver called off his friends when he realized the three were soldiers, police said. But as the five retreated to the car, one appeared to bump into Geike, who fell as the five sped away in the car, Geike's companions told police.
Geike had been stabbed, and he died at the scene, police said.
Investigators are trying to determine whether to classify the stabbing as a hate crime, Lakewood police Lt. Chris Lawler told the News Tribune of Tacoma.

You've got to be kidding me. If it were a reverse scenario the whites would already be screwed, chewed, and barbequed by police.
