(CNN) -- Two juveniles are in custody Sunday, suspected in the death of a man beaten with hammers on a St. Louis street.

The victim, 32-year-old Zemir Begic, suffered injuries to his head, abdomen, face and mouth, according to police.

He was unconscious by the time officers arrived. Begic was taken to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead, police said.

"Investigation revealed the victim was traveling in his vehicle when several juveniles approached his vehicle on foot and began damaging it.

"The victim exited his vehicle and the juveniles began yelling at the victim and striking him with hammers. After the assault, the juveniles fled the scene on foot," read an incident report.

Two suspects were later located and taken into custody, police said. They are 15 and 16.

A motive for the attack was not immediately clear. An investigation is ongoing.

Typical CNN spin at the end, 'motive for the attack not immediately clear.'

Call me racist and the article does not specify race, but given the close dates of Ferguson and this incident in St. Louis, I am thinking that the perpetrators were black and the victim obviously white. I am willing to bet that no charges of a "hate crime will be lodged and I am also willing to bet that no whites will burn down the town or loot the liquor stores.

While the troll utters don't distract from the real issues. A civil war is being stoked again and you don't have to look to far to see who is behind it.

The kids were upstanding individuals who had big plans for their future. One was planning to be a doctor, the other a rocket scientist.

Two of the juveniles arrested are African-American while the third is a black Hispanic youth.
The headline should have read: "White motorist attacked by black teens and savagely beaten to death with hammer".

CNN and all the mainstream will do all they can to hide the facts in order to protect these animals

A 20 yr old black man was shot in the head and burned up in his car in Ferguson during the riots the night of the grand jury decision. Nobody talks about that.
